Rule of Law in Honduras

Our work in Honduras

Providing Technical Assistance in Support of the Selection Process for the Honduran Supreme Court and Attorney General

ABA ROLI’s and CHR’s work in Honduras aims to support the Nominating Board with expertise and targeted technical assistance to promote a fair, equitable, and transparent selection process for the Supreme Court, the Attorney General, and Deputy Attorney General that reflect and complies with international standards and best practices. Our efforts are grounded in prior experience observing high court selection processes in Honduras and the United States, in combination with the robust examination of the steps, criteria, and processes involved in selecting and evaluating Supreme Court candidates.

Strengthening the Prosecution of Environmental Crimes in Honduras

ABA ROLI aims to create a resource tool, in the form of a prosecution manual, for law enforcement and prosecutors in Honduras. This manual will serve as a resource reference on environmental crimes for law enforcement actors and will provide an overview of the laws and resources available to investigate and prosecute natural resource crimes in Honduras. In collaboration with the Environmental Law Institute, the two organizations will create a combined manual for Guatemala and Honduras regarding the investigation and prosecution of crimes involving natural resources, including fishes, forest products, minerals, and wildlife.
