LexisNexis Announces New Global Legal Foundation
LexisNexis Legal & Professional has established the LexisNexis Rule of Law Foundation, a not-for-profit organization whose goal is to advance the rule of law globally. It hopes to enable leading bodies from legal, judicial, and other sectors to support and initiate projects that address one or more of four rule of law elements: equal treatment under the law, transparency of the law, access to legal remedy, and independent judiciaries. The foundation will also partner with organizations to promote awareness and understanding of the rule of law.“Rule of law is foundational to the development of peaceful, equitable and prosperous societies,” says Mike Walsh, CEO of LexisNexis Legal & Professional. “Data from the LexisNexis Rule of Law Impact Tracker shows that when the rule of law is strong in a country, other positive social and economic factors within the country are also strong. It is our hope the LexisNexis Rule of Law Foundation will provide the necessary resources and support to shed light on emerging issues critical to advancing the rule of law around the world.” For more information, read the press release.
