Chairman of the International Commission on Justice Bar: Equal access to legal rights is one of the pillars of human dignity

Morteza Abdi, attending the International Conference on Civil and Political Rights held in St. Petersburg, Russia, emphasized the importance of access to public and free justice.

The head of the International Commission, referring to the experience of the Islamic Republic of Iran on the possibility of access to legal rights and free legal assistance, said: Article 5 of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran guarantees the right to have a lawyer and, with the support of the judiciary, the Judiciary Bar Center is responsible for leading and expanding legal and international law and law services.

The text of Abdi's lecture at this conference is as follows:

Bismillah al -Rahman al -Rahim

Honorable judges, international lawyers, professors, researchers, and dear colleagues.

It is an honor to talk to you at this prestigious international gathering of the 13th International Conference on International Law, Russia, about one of the most fundamental human rights, “the right to access to justice and legal services”.

1. International Basics Right to Free Legal Services

The right to free legal assistance is rooted in the fundamental principles of human rights:

Article 2 The International Covenant of Civil and Political Rights emphasizes that in criminal lawsuit, each person must receive free legal assistance in the event of a financial failure.

The fundamental principles of the United Nations for the role of lawyers (Havana 2) considers governments to guarantee the access to low -profile lawyers and free counseling.

The goal of the UN Sustainable Development (SDG) goals is to create accountable institutions, justice -oriented institutions and ensuring equal access to justice.

In leading legal systems such as France, Germany, the United Kingdom and even countries with developing economies, such as India and Brazil, governments have created legal systems to provide free lawyers, especially in criminal and family matters.

2. Experience of the Islamic Republic of Iran: People for Legal Justice

In Iran, Article 4 of the Constitution ensures the right to have a lawyer and, with the support of the judiciary, has taken over the responsibility of the Judiciary Bar Association responsible for the expansion of free legal services on domestic issues and cases abroad and sometimes internationally.

In Iran, we have tried to bring this right from the level of laws and documents to the community and people's lives:

“Lawyers in Mosques”: With the voluntary presence of thousands of lawyers in religious sites, churches, schools, universities, hundreds of thousands of free consultations have been offered throughout the country.

Providing Legal Services in Imamzadeh and Blessed Burns: In these places, service tables have been set up to make justice among the people and in the context of current life.

Lawyer Vow Plan: Many of our lawyers vow to provide free consultation or dealership. This link between religion and justice is an indigenous-religious experience in line with international documents.

Electronic System ۱۹ for fast, free and day -to -day access to lawyers and legal and legal services

Memorandum of Understanding with Support Agencies: To cover vulnerable groups such as people with disabilities, women heads of households, orphans and martyrs' families, and religious and religious minorities.

1. Adaptive and global reflection

Today, various legal systems seek to create innovative models for justice:

In South Africa, the Legal Aid SA system with government budget and trained lawyers serves more than 6,000 people annually.

In Canada and Australia, “academic legal clinics” play an important role in education and justice in collaboration with expert students and lawyers.

In the Philippines, churches have been deprived of free legal advice to the disadvantaged; An experience we see in Iran with the presence of lawyers in mosques.

1. Conclusion: Justice is the right of all

Equal access to legal rights is one of the pillars of human dignity. We should not allow economic inequality to cause inequality in justice.

Justice should not be left behind in the courts, but it must come to the heart of society.

In Iran, we have tried to realize this concept with our native, religious and institutional capacity; But there is a world and collective way forward.

Let's make access to rights for all real and effective by exchangeing experience, international synergy, and commitment to human dignity.
