Overview
Advances in legal tech are not currently disrupting Canada’s access to justice crisis. In this project we sought to understand the barriers and opportunities for disruptive legal technology to address people’s everyday legal problems. The application of the discipline of Strategic Foresight to the justice system allowed us to examine the forces of change in the current environment affecting A2J actors and identify key levers that could be pulled now to support transformative change. The project has resulted in a se of practical tools for A2J actors.
