Our Mission

                                              About CJAF

Criminal Justice Advocates Foundation (CJAF) is a non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting access to justice, restorative research, and building effective, accountable and inclusive institutions in the criminal justice system in Nigeria.

We believe that everyone deserves to be treated fairly and with respect, regardless of their background or the charges against them, and prioritise healing and rebuilding relationships between the victim, the offender, and the community rather than simply punishing offenders.

 

Our Work

Our work includes research and advocacy on a variety of issues, including:

Lengthy Pre-trial incarceration

Mass incarceration

Slow criminal trials and appeals

Police brutality

Disparities in the Criminal Justice System

Prison conditions
