UNDP supports digitalising judiciary

As the interim government is working to bring reform in the judiciary, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is providing support for digitalising Bangladesh's judiciary to make it fully independent, reports BSS.

Through expert assessments and technical advice, the UNDP is helping the judiciary adopt modern digital systems for case management, court proceedings, and public services.

"This not only enhances efficiency but also reduces opportunities for corruption and external influence, thereby reinforcing judicial autonomy," Stefan Liller, Resident Representative of UNDP Bangladesh, said.

With an emphasis on national leadership of the justice reform process, he said, the UNDP is helping build sustainable in-house capacity within the judiciary.
