About the project
This is an applied research project whose main objective is to generate knowledge about the impact of COVID-19 in the field of access to justice (A2J): access to legal information, access to resources and mechanisms extrajudicial and judicial, and access to a process with full guarantees, especially in the cases of people at risk of social exclusion.
The project aims to analyze the impact of Covid-19 on A2J in order to understand how it has been managed, identify strengths and weaknesses, and propose best practices for the future. The objective of the research is to provide knowledge from practice so that the effects of any other crisis do not affect the fundamental right of A2J, and that solutions are inclusive, beneficial and lasting for society. The study focuses on the activity of the Courts in Madrid, Barcelona and Bilbao, and is carried out jointly with research teams at the Universidad Pontificia Comillas and Universidad de Deusto.
