Subproject 8 - Tools for Self-Represented Litigants

Start – 2018 | End – 2024 Duration – 6 years

The phenomenon of self-representation of citizens produces a risk of overloading  the courts of cases that are inadmissible, have low stakes or have low chances of success. In order to overcome these difficulties, many tools are being developed in the field of citizens' self-representation and must therefore be evaluated in terms of their effectiveness, relevance and satisfaction rates of the target audience.
