Effective and transparent dispute resolution systems are prerequisites to the inclusive development of the South Pacific countries of Vanuatu and Solomon Islands. Besides formal courts, these countries support community justice systems, which blend state and non-state processes and integrate customary law and lay persons as decision-makers. However, country officials required assistance on how to best coordinate, monitor, and evaluate these systems, as well as encourage and track women’s participation.
