Deadline: August 15, 2019.

Since 2012, the HiiL Justice Accelerator has existed to scout and support the world’s best justice innovations. They have a yearly portfolio of 20-30 innovations.

The Justice Entrepreneurship School (JES) kickstarts justice innovation. With courses in business modelling, impact assessment, marketing and more, the JES helps prepare justice innovators for big growth. It’s so much more than just classes. This is your chance to join a global community of big thinkers like them. Connections and networks made at the JES have lasted years and have led to big collaborations.

 

ELIGIBILITY

They look for ventures with strong potential to prevent or resolve pressing justice needs. Examples of such eventures are those that deliver concrete justice solutions for many people, including micro, small and medium-sized businesses, and initiatives within existing justice systems or public institutions, spearheaded by driven intrapreneurs.

• Innovative justice initiatives who can make significant social impact
• Ventures that have a business model and the ambition to scale across a country or internationally
• Ventures that have a business model that enables them to become financially sustainable
• Ventures led by a motivated and strong team that includes experienced and inspiring founder(s)
