ABOUT AGAMISCAPE
Agami is an organization which advances ideas that serve justice. Agami does this by identifying ideas, reframing problems, curating leaders and catalyzing collaborative action. Agami has catalyzed innovation in vitally important areas with its storytelling, innovation surfacing, and connecting actors and opportunities, which have enabled a new kind of collective leadership to be unleashed.
Agamiscape is a movement by Agami involving groups of people and their ideas whose aim is to change the way justice is perceived in India by changing the way it is implemented. In key areas of law and justice, a few examples of these developments are online dispute resolution, electronic courts, artificial intelligence, the creation and sharing of data, and so on. It is one of the tenets of Agami that all citizens are able to participate in the creation of a more just society.
Recently, Agamiscape had called for applications for the Agami Prize from such institutes. 600 applicants had registered, out of which 50 initiatives were shortlisted for the Agami Prize 2022. It is with great pleasure that Your Legal Career Coach (YLCC) introduces these initiatives to you all.
