ABOUT

PacificJust is a judicial and law enforcement network spanning the Pacific Rim, bringing together law enforcement agencies, prosecution offices, government bodies, UN mechanisms, civil society, and NGOs to build a community of practice and foster cooperation. The network promotes the adoption of global best practices for ensuring accountability for core international crimes in domestic courts, including through the exercise of universal jurisdiction.

PacificJust also works to strengthen mutual legal assistance (MLA) and joint investigation team (JIT) arrangements. In doing so, it draws on the experience and model of the European Union’s Genocide Prosecution Network, hosted by Eurojust, for application across the Pacific Rim region.
