Friday, January 29, 2016

The Canadian Forum on Civil Justice is thrilled to have partnered with the Rural and Remote Access to Justice Boldness Project to produce “Rural and Remote Access to Justice A Literature Review”. This seminal document presents an extensive look at the current trends, gaps in research, and promising practices in legal service delivery related to rural and remote areas. Additionally, this review explores how “rural and remote” is understood, the access to justice challenges and opportunities in rural and remote areas, compared with their urban counterparts, and the types of issues experienced in rural and remote communities in different provinces and countries.

The Rural and Remote Access to Justice Literature Review is accessible in full here.
