Fair Trials is a global criminal justice watchdog with offices in London,
Brussels and Washington, D.C., focused on improving the right to a fair
trial in accordance with international standards.
Fair Trials’ work is premised on the belief that fair
trials are one of the cornerstones of a just society:
they prevent lives from being ruined by miscarriages
of justice, and make societies safer by contributing to
transparent and reliable justice systems that maintain
public trust. Although universally recognised in
principle, in practice the basic human right to a fair
trial is being routinely abused.
Its work combines: (a) helping suspects to
understand and exercise their rights; (b) building an
engaged and informed network of fair trial defenders
(including NGOs, lawyers and academics); and (c)
fighting the underlying causes of unfair trials through
research, litigation, political advocacy and campaigns.
