The Center for Justice and International Law (CEJIL) is a nonprofit, non-governmental organization based in the United States that focuses on protecting and advancing human rights in the Americas through international law. It provides advice and free legal representation to victims of human rights abuses and to allies who defend their causes, prioritizing those from the hemisphere’s most persecuted and excluded populations. The organization emphasizes collaboration with human rights defenders and partner groups to litigate, coordinate efforts, and share outcomes. CEJIL operates within the civic and social sector and relies on strategic use of international human rights mechanisms to address justice barriers when domestic avenues are insufficient. A recent collaboration noted is a May 2020 event with Amazon Frontlines that facilitated dialogue among indigenous leaders and activists to discuss ongoing challenges, including those arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.
