eJustice means providing access to justice through ICTs. eJustice initiatives aim at promoting legal awareness through an electronic interface by presenting legislations and relevant judgements, procedural regulations and enlightening on the existence of alternative information on legal remedies. Furthermore, ICTs enable interactive channels to consult citizens with specific legal issues. Especially citizens residing in the rural and semi-urban areas who often lack the access to legal information can benfit from eJustice.

Often eJustice also refers to the modernization of the administration and delivery of justice through re-engineering work processes by using ICTs. The benefits are increased efficiency and effectiveness and thus strengthen the rule of law.
