Dear Justice Definitions Crew,
It’s been an amazing journey so far! Thanks to our wonderful volunteers, legal experts, and partners, we’ve reached some big milestones. Together, we’re breaking down complicated legal language and creating a digital space that everyone can understand.
If you’ve been with us for a while, you know that more than 600 people from all over India have helped build the Justice Definitions Project remotely. Until now, we’ve mostly worked together through Wiki drafts, research sessions, and edit-a-thons.
We decided it was finally time to step away from our screens and just relax together for a change!
We hosted our first Community Connect in Bangalore this Sunday, 7th June, at Samagata Space on Church Street, and it felt refreshing! People from law and tech came together in a cozy setting, bringing lots of ideas and curiosity. We kept it strictly no-work and no-laptops. Instead, we enjoyed samosas, cookies, and great conversations about AI in law!
A big thank you to everyone who joined us, brought their energy, and shared their ideas. We’re also grateful to Samagata Foundation for hosting our growing community!
Couldn’t make it to this meetup?
Don’t worry! This was only our first. We’re planning to host more such meetups regularly and soon in other cities too!
Hit reply or leave a comment on our socials to let us know which cities we should visit for the next Community Connect!
