Rule of Law

In its programming, the Wilson Center assesses a wide array of current rule-of-law challenges—in particular governance, public accountability, human rights, judicial independence, and anti-corruption efforts.  Programmatic activities convene multiple stakeholders—government officials, lawyers, NGO experts, social scientists, the business community—to explore and discuss common obstacles to legal reform and to identify innovative strategies that have been employed around the world to address rule-of-law issues.
