In this session we will discuss how to create a government innovation lab using, as a case study, the Access to Justice Innovation Lab of the School of the Judiciary of the Dominican Republic. This is the first innovation lab in Latin America inside the judiciary, and it has three goals: 1) Advance the transformation of the legal profession; 2) Develop user-centered products and services; and 3) support the Judiciary’s Strategic Plan Visión Justicia 20/24. In the first year of the Lab, we have held legal design workshops with over 70 judges, created the first Access to Justice Hackathon using Stanford’s Hacking 4 Defense class as inspiration (11-week sprint where college students worked alongside judges to develop new products and services) and developed a 12-week mandatory legal innovation course for future judges. In the session, we will walk how we created the Lab, it’s success and lessons learned.
