Our people and core business operations are helping to advance the rule of law around the world.
The Rule of Law
In its simplest form, the rule of law means that “no one is above the law.” It is the foundation for the development of peaceful, equitable and prosperous societies. For the rule of law to be effective, there must be equality under the law, transparency of law, an independent judiciary and access to legal remedy. Yet, about 57% of the world’s population lives outside the shelter of the law. That’s five billion people struggling for basic, human rights on a daily basis.
LexisNexis Rule of Law – Mobile Court to Ranau, Sabah
Most of the rural communities in East Malaysia, are unable to access the services provided by the Courts due to the distance between the Court and the rural areas. As a result of this need, the Mobile Court was created. A group of Judges, court officers and lawyers would traverse the tough terrain to dispense legal aid and justice to those in need. LexisNexis is honoured to be a part of this expedition since 2018.
Mobile Court Experience – LexisNexis Employees
LexisNexis employees are committed to supporting the communities where we live and work with the legal heroes to advance the Rule of Law. We travelled more than 100KM for the Mobile Court progamme led by Kota Kinabalu Court with a group of Judges, court officers and lawyers to dispense legal aid and justice to the rural communities in Ranau, Sabah. Sharing our experience through this video! If you like to be part of an organisation who is committed to actively advancing the rule of law, contact us to find out more.
Rule of Law Equation
The rule of law is the foundation for the development of peaceful, equitable and prosperous societies. We believe there are four key areas that form the umbrella protection of the rule of law.
Advancing Every Day
We are committed to actively advancing the rule of law through our daily operations, products and services, the efforts of our people, and in collaboration with customers and key stakeholders.
Expanding the umbrella protection
of The Rule of Law
Through our day-to-day business, products and services, we are working to bring the percentage of people living outside the umbrella protection of the law down to zero.
