By:

USAID - DRG Bureau


The study in Niger was completed using literature review, 24 key informant interviews, and 13,840 online survey responses to address the following research questions: (1) How does interaction with an NHRI or CSO change the way individuals move through their justice pathway? (2) Are there different points in an individual’s justice journey that show where trust in state is increased or decreased? (3) What actionable strategies can NHRIs or CSOs take to strengthen the ability of NHRIs to seek justice for individuals who experience rights violations?
