This event is hosted by the Pathfinders Justice for All program at New York University’s Center on International Cooperation in its role as secretariat of the Justice Action Coalition, and in partnership with the Permanent Mission of Costa Rica to the United Nations and the Permanent Mission of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to the United Nations.
This event aims to explore new tools to improve people-centered justice communications strategies, taking the movement beyond the “justice” world and into new spaces through effective advocacy and messaging. This event will include a panel of advocacy and communications experts who offer fresh perspectives and unconventional thinking. By design, the panelists come from outside the justice sector, offering authentic insights into how justice can resonate with diverse audiences. These experts will share their approaches to advocacy, messaging, audience engagement, and campaigning, and offer practical advice about how the justice community can break out of its communication “bubble.” The discussion will explore ways to connect meaningfully with wider audiences—from policy experts, diplomats, and business leaders, to communities far removed from the policy arena altogether.
