Reprieve is a London-based legal action nonprofit organization that combines investigative work, legal advocacy, and campaigning to defend marginalized individuals facing human rights abuses, often from powerful governments. Its work centers on providing legal support and pursuing justice for those affected, aiming to address abuses and challenge accountable authorities. Operating within the legal services sector, the group positions itself as an action-oriented NGO that couples litigation with strategic campaigning to affect accountability and policy reform. The organization is based in London, England, and operates with a staff large enough to support a multidisciplinary approach to human rights cases. A noted recent development is the launch of the Kenya Resentencing Project by its US affiliate, initiated in early 2020 to support resentencing efforts in Kenya following prior regional reforms.
