Fair Trials is a UK-registered non-governmental organization which works for fair trials according to international standards of justice and the right to a fair trial, identifying where criminal justice is failing, alerting the world to the problems, and resolving these issues through campaigning, advocacy and strategic litigation.[1] It also builds regional legal capacity through targeted training, mentoring and network activities,[2] coordinating a network of criminal justice legal experts[3] and European human rights NGOs called JUSTICIA.[4]
