Our Approach
Legal research is only useful when it is methodologically sound and ethically conducted. Where research involves sensitive populations- survivors of violence, trafficking, or abuse. We apply strict standards of anonymization, informed consent, victim-centered and trauma-informed design, and safety-first protocols, consistent with international best practices for research involving vulnerable groups.
