Abstract
Adalete erişim, dünya genelinde çağdaş yargı sistemlerinin en temel unsurlarından biridir. Yargının tarafsızlığı ve bağımsızlığı ile hukuk devleti arasında yapısal bir bağlantı vardır. Mahkemelere ve mahkeme dışı uyuşmazlık çözüm yollarına fizikî olarak erişim, yargılama usûllerini anlama veya avukatla temsilden yararlanma imkânı söz konusu olmazsa, adalet sisteminde reform yapma ve yargının etkinliğini arttırma çabaları yetersiz kalacaktır. Bu hukuk politikası belgesi, Türk adalet sisteminde adaletin etkinliğinin arttırılması ve adalete erişimin kolaylaştırılması için bazı öneriler içermektedir. Bu öneriler kapsamında adalete erişim ve önleyici adalet hakkında tedbirler, mevzuat değişikliği önerileri, yargının kurumsallaşması, paydaşlarla işbirliği, etkinliğin önündeki engeller, alternatif uyuşmazlık çözüm yollarına başvurulması ve sorunlara çözüm üretme çabaları ortaya konulmuştur. Örneğin komşuluk uyuşmazlıkları ve küçük uyuşmazlıkların çözümü için toplum sulh merkezlerinin kurulması ve yerel düzeyde yaygınlaştırılması önerilmiştir.
