Kaikaia
Description
Nicaragua had a strong juvenile justice law that promoted alternatives to detention, but for years it remained mostly on paper due to the lack of clear protocols, training, and the infrastructure needed to support restorative practices. Judges had no reliable way to track outcomes, follow up was irregular, and many adolescents reoffended without proper guidance or coordinated support. To address this, Tutator worked with the Terre des Hommes Foundation and the Supreme Court of Justice to develop Kaikaia, an integrated digital system that helps turn the law into daily practice. Kaikaia supports personalized rehabilitation plans, improves coordination between justice actors, and allows real time monitoring to guide decisions and reduce reoffending, helping modernize Nicaragua’s juvenile justice system despite economic and political challenges.
