HMCTS approached the Policy Lab to help design a means of listening to people about the future of open justice. We wanted to think about the opportunities and potential challenges that are being raised by new technology. We also wanted to engage with the public to explore what people already know and think about open justice, and how they might feel about it in a number of possible futures.

The aim of the Policy Lab, a cabinet Office led team is to bring people-centred design approaches to policy-making. They provide policy teams across Government with practical support to better understand the people they are trying to reach, and work with them to co-design solutions. They use design, data and digital tools and act as a testing ground for policy innovation across government.

This report details the output, findings recommendations from holding 4 workshops in London & Manchester with 44 members of the public.
