Sudreau Global Justice Institute
Strengthening Justice Systems. Defending the Defenseless.
Training the Next Generation.There are over 40 million slaves in the world today. Girls all over the world are denied the right to an education simply because they are girls. Thousands of vulnerable people around the world are subject to unjust detainment with no access or right to an attorney.
What We Do
We are an international organization, based out of Pepperdine Caruso School of Law, working to provide holistic solutions to systemic injustice and equip others to do the same.
Strengthen Justice Systems
We partner with governments around the world to implement equitable laws and systems, and we provide training to judges, lawyers, and key stakeholders along the way.
Defend the Defenseless
We seek out those suffering injustice and we work to represent them or advocate on their behalf.
Train the Next Generation
We provide law students and practicing attorneys academic training and hands-on opportunities around the world to advocate on the behalf of those in need.

Project Spotlight
Juvenile Justice Defense Project
Tragically, Henry's story is not unique. Thousands of kids all around the world are subject to unjust imprisonment and have no right or means to afford an attorney. We plan to change that. In 2020 we launched our first Juvenile Justice Defense Project in partnership with the Ugandan Government. The goal? To build a sustainable Juvenile Public Defender's Office that ensures every child in Uganda's criminal justice system is provided an attorney.
