Justice in Action: International Legal Foundation (ILF)

The IADC Foundation supports organizations around the world that advance the rule of law and expand access to justice. In this special series, we sit down with leaders from Foundation grantee organizations to explore their missions, the communities they serve, and the real-world impact of their work.

In this episode of IADC Speaks, Host Cecilia Lahaye (Crowell & Moring) speaks with Shikha Pandey (International Legal Foundation, Program Director, Asia) about ILF, a non-profit organization dedicated to expanding access to legal aid and quality criminal defense services in countries facing conflict, authoritarian rule, and systemic crises.

Shikha shares her personal journey to ILF and discusses its mission to bridge gaps in justice systems, and the critical role skilled legal representation plays in protecting individual rights and strengthening communities. Through compelling stories and real examples, she illustrates how access to defense counsel can transform lives and why support from organizations such as the IADC Foundation is essential to advancing the rule of law. This conversation highlights how access to justice is not an abstract principle but a concrete necessity for people facing some of the world's most challenging circumstances.
