The Hague Institute for Global Justice is young, but its mission is timeless because the search for global justice has many dimensions and no end point. To accomplish its mission the Institute is dedicated to the full involvement of local stakeholders, because true justice is not an abstract concept rather something that makes a tangible and positive difference in people’s lives.
