Corporate Accountability for Human Rights and Environmental Violations in Domestic and Global Supply Chains
ILAJUC works to develop and improve the rights of communities in Latin America and access to justice globally.
The Latin American Institute for Collective Justice – ILAJUC is a non-profit organization that investigates how collective law, whether in its material or procedural sphere, supports democracy, socioeconomic development, social solidarity and access to justice throughout Latin America. As a think tank, our focus is the development of ideas, research and studies in collective law, especially through comparative law, with the aim of generating practical results and contributing to the society in which we live.
ILAJUC works to strengthen human and collective rights, promoting social, environmental and climate justice in Latin America.
Our team is made up of experts in administrative law, international human rights law, environmental law, environmental engineering, forest biology and ecology. We have extensive experience in transnational collective litigation in the areas of human rights and business, environmental law, antitrust law and consumer law.
