New national studies on women's access to justice in the Eastern Partnership countries available

Policy-makers, judges, prosecutors, legal professionals, as well as representatives of academia and civil society can now benefit from updated national studies “Barriers, remedies and good practices on women’s access to justice” for Azerbaijan, Georgiathe Republic of Moldova, and Ukraine.

The studies were first prepared in 2017 and updated in 2023 with the aim to identify and support the removal of obstacles to women’s access to justice in these four Eastern Partnership countries, as well as to strengthen the capacity of national authorities to ensure that the justice chain is more gender-responsive.

All four studies now feature an outline of positive developments that have occurred in the countries since their first publication, such as the ratification of the Istanbul Convention by the Republic of Moldova, Georgia and Ukraine, but also the negative consequences of unforeseen events, namely the global Covid-19 pandemic and Russia’s full-scale aggression against Ukraine.
