Customary justice institutions are systems of justice that are based on traditional customs and practices. These systems are often used to resolve disputes and conflicts in communities, and they are based on the values and beliefs of the community. Customary justice institutions are often seen as a more informal and less formal way of resolving disputes than the formal justice system. They are often seen as more accessible and less expensive than the formal justice system, and they can provide a more culturally appropriate way of resolving disputes. Customary justice institutions can also provide a more holistic approach to justice, as they often take into account the social, economic, and cultural context of the dispute.
