Santo Domingo.- The Dominican Republic made significant strides in strengthening the rule of law, climbing 11 places to 76th out of 143 countries in the 2025 World Justice Project (WJP) Rule of Law Index, marking the largest global improvement (+2.1%). Its overall score rose from 0.49 to 0.50, reflecting progress across key areas including limits on government power, civil justice, and criminal justice. The WJP, an independent international initiative, evaluates how countries uphold the principles of the rule of law in daily life, measuring factors such as absence of corruption, access to justice, transparency, and respect for fundamental rights. According to Supreme Court President Luis Henry Molina, the improvement reflects the sustained efforts of judges and court staff in building justice with transparency, efficiency, and a human-centered approach.
