Parallel to the exhibtion Corpus Delicti Avocats sans Frontières presents ROOM for JUSTICE, an exhibition on Globalisation and Justice
“ROOM for JUSTICE” creates a unique space in a courthouse. A journey towards another universe that cannot fail to move you. A journey on which it is no longer possible to hide the facts. A journey that forces you to face unjust realities but at the same time offers hope for their resolution.
Seven photographers bear witness to the tragic consequences of a globalised economy that neglects human and environmental dimensions. Simultaneously, they show the strong will of the people who fight for respect of the law and justice. “ROOM for JUSTICE” is a direct call to action for those who work in the legal field and especially for lawyers, to get involved and enhance access to justice for all.
