The webinar seeks to explore the incidents that catalyse reform in police culture and practices across countries, albeit with varying degrees of success. What kind of events hold the potential to be disruptive junctures, and how does the process of police reform get initiated?

Srinath Raghavan speaks to Maja Daruwala, chief editor of the India Justice Report—a first-of-its-kind study— which assesses the state capacity of India’s police force and identifies key areas where reforms are most urgent. The report also focuses on the other three pillars of justice in India, which are the judiciary, prisons and legal aid.
