Open Law Project Presentation
Legal reference works are too expensive, making the law inaccessible to most people. Open access to primary legal materials is a right, but charging high fees denies most of the population access to the law. The proposed solution is the Open Law Project, a community-driven effort to create an open access wiki of South African law, following the model of Wikipedia. It would use a federated approach and smart partnerships to make legal information freely available under open licensing.
