Corry van Zeeland

Corry Van Zeeland was a social worker for fifteen years before obtaining a law degree from Tilburg University. After a position in the Dutch prison system, she joined the Tisco Research Institute at Tilburg University. Her efforts there have centered on conflict resolution, and especially designing and implementing user-driven systems. In 2012, Tisco entered into a formal relationship with the Hague Institute for the Internationalisation of the Law, and Corry became head of HiiL’s Justice Innovation Lab. In that position, she facilitates “access to justice” contact and cooperation among those working on new approaches to leveling the playing field, to ensure that law is used as a tool to bring about a just society.
