Background
ABA ROLI has worked to advance human rights and the rule of law in Ukraine since 1992, specifically through bar development, and efforts to combat corruption, cybercrime, and human trafficking. In collaboration with Ukrainian stakeholders, we drafted and analyzed legislation, created a unified bar association and supported the establishment of a legal aid system. These efforts continue today through funding from the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor (DRL).
