Roadmap for 2030 Argentinian Justice
Description

The Argentinian Roadmap’s goal is to design a multisectorial strategy to achieve SDG 16+ by establishing judicial public policies to be developed until 2030, through the next three presidential terms (2019-2023; 2023-2027; 2027-2031). Preventing asystematic initiatives or fragmentations in theses process tends to mitigate risks in the coming years.

This commitment was co-created with civil society during the first half of 2019 using a virtual platform runned by Justice 2020 program, at the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights. The diagnosis and the future vision of the justice system were discussed through this platform. The Roadmap was also analyzed and validated by system operators and civil society in multiple conferences and meetings around the country.

The Roadmap developed in this way includes specific implementations methodologies for each action and are structured in seven (7) topics: institutional, criminal, civil, access to justice, judicial and registry management, human rights, and justice and community. In each case the monitoring system is expected to be in charge of civil society and the ecosystem of justice that worked along this strategy.
