ORPE Human Rights Advocates implements doctrine-driven justice capacity building programs in autocratically driven states where courts are captured, prosecutions politicized, and defense rights suppressed. By training justice actors, reinforcing institutional safeguards, and aligning domestic practice with international and divine law standards, the program restores impartial justice and protects human dignity.

Autocratic systems weaponize courts to entrench power, criminalize dissent, and erode public trust. Judges lack independence, prosecutors serve political masters, and defense counsel are obstructed, resulting in systemic human rights violations.

Goal

To build sustainable justice capacity that ensures fair, impartial, and independent adjudication in politically constrained environments.

Objectives

• Strengthen judicial independence and ethics

• Improve prosecutorial legality and accountability

• Enhance defense and legal aid effectiveness

• Embed fair trial standards institutionally
