Call for contributions: digitising justice – how can technology support access to justice?

Call for contributions! Get involved in the techUK’s #digitaljusticeimpactday2026

As part of our Digital Justice portfolio, techUK is delighted to announce that on Wednesday 29 April, we will be running our ‘Digital justice impact day 2026’. This event offers techUK members and stakeholders the opportunity to contribute blogs, insights, and expertise on how technology can support the justice journey, from courts and tribunals to probation services and prisons. 

Technology plays a key role in making the criminal justice system more accessible, efficient, and responsive to the needs of all those involved, from supporting translation and interpretation services, facilitating video conferencing for victims and defendants, streamlining prosecution processes, enabling the application of AI throughout the system, and assisting with investigations related to technology-enabled offences.
