OPEN CALL FOR PROPOSALS Justice Mural Initiative

Issued by the Ministry of Justice and Legal Affairs, Government of Saint Kitts and Nevis

This initiative is being implemented under the Justice Action Coalition Catalytic Fund in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme Multi Country Office for Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean.

1. Background and Reform Context

The Ministry of Justice and Legal Affairs is continuing its work to strengthen people- centred justice in Saint Kitts, with a growing focus on community engagement, public awareness, and restorative approaches to justice.

As part of this effort, we are introducing a Justice Mural Initiative- a public art project, designed to translate key justice concepts into something visible, relatable, and meaningful for the wider community.

This mural will serve as a public- facing representation of justice reform, while also creating opportunities for youth engagement, creative expression, and community participation.
