RULE OF LAW INDEX: AT THE CORE OF WJP'S RULE OF LAW DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS IS THE WJP RULE OF LAW INDEX, WHICH MEASURES HOW THE RULE OF LAW IS PERCEIVED AND EXPERIENCED IN EVERYDAY LIFE AROUND THE GLOBE. IT IS THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE INDEX OF ITS KIND AND THE ONLY TO RELY SOLELY ON PRIMARY DATA. ADHERENCE TO THE RULE OF LAW IS ASSESSED USING INDICATORS ORGANIZED AROUND EIGHT THEMES: CONSTRAINTS ON GOVERNMENT POWERS, ABSENCE OF CORRUPTION, OPEN GOVERNMENT, FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS, ORDER AND SECURITY, REGULATORY ENFORCEMENT, CIVIL JUSTICE, AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE. THE WJP RULE OF LAW INDEX IS BASED ON YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT, INTENSIVE CONSULTATION, AND VETTING WITH ACADEMICS, LEGAL PRACTITIONERS, AND COMMUNITY LEADERS FROM OVER 100 COUNTRIES AND 17 PROFESSIONAL DISCIPLINES. THE INDEX IS INTENDED FOR A BROAD AUDIENCE OF POLICY MAKERS, CIVIL SOCIETY, ORGANIZATIONS, LEGAL PRACTITIONERS, ACADEMICS, BUSINESS PEOPLE AND OTHERS. INDEX FINDINGS HAVE BEEN REFERENCED BY HEADS OF STATE, CHIEF JUSTICES, BUSINESS LEADERS, PUBLIC OFFICIALS, AND THE PRESS. BUILDING ON THE INDEX METHODOLOGY, WJP ALSO UNDERTAKES INDEPTH COUNTRY AND TOPIC STUDIES, ON SUBJECTS SUCH AS ACCESS TO JUSTICE, CRIMINAL JUSTICE, AND ENVIRONMENTAL GOVERNANCE.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$4.4MProgram 2 [2020]
