The Programme for Legal Empowerment and Aid Delivery in Kenya (PLEAD II) is anchored in the Kenya Vision 2030 strategy. To support Kenya as it works to fulfil this vision, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), ESTDEV and Kenya’s National Council on Administration of Justice (NCAJ) have partnered up to build competencies, increase digital skills and improve efficiency in Kenya's e-justice landscape, leading to a more human-centric criminal justice system overall.  

Project objectives

The PLEAD II project’s key objectives include facilitating peer-to-peer exchanges through study visits to Estonia as well as engaging Estonian justice sector experts to lead training sessions in Kenya, conducting online and offline capacity building and advisory for the NCAJ’s ICT Committee, and supporting the development of guidelines for digitally transforming the justice sector. 

Actions and results

PLEAD II supports transformative criminal justice reforms that aim to harness the power of digitalisation to improve the public sector’s efficiency and citizen access. These digital solutions will eventually improve service delivery, cut processing time and increase transparency to help combat corruption.
