How it is constructed

Each indicator is composed of measurable inputs drawn from court statistics, official reports, international recommendations and documented case outcomes.

Scores are normalised on a 0–100 scale where higher is better. Where data is missing, the indicator is marked provisional and the gap is documented.

The complete construction of every indicator, including sources and calculation, is disclosed in the accompanying methodology note.
