NLG worked with the Bureau des Avocats Internationaux, the Institute for Justice & Democracy in Haiti, and the International Association of Democratic Lawyers to debut legal observers in Haiti during May Day protests of 2018. In other countries, legal observers are associated with such groups as Liberty (UK), Green and Black Cross (UK), the Scottish Community & Activist Legal Project (SCALP) (Scotland), and others. In Australia in the 1970s, priests acted as legal observers during the large Moratorium Marches against the Vietnam War. In September 2000, Pt'chang Nonviolent Community Safety Group organised a large legal observer team for the S11 protest against the World Economic Forum in Melbourne. A decade later, during the Occupy movement, an ongoing group of legal observer teams was established, that would go on to be called Melbourne Activist Legal Support, observing actions throughout Melbourne. In Sydney, the Legal Observers Project, formally based at the Community Law Centre at the University of Technology, Sydney, and renamed Human Rights Monitors, was established in April 2001. This group reformed as Sydney Copwatch in 2009. Human rights organizations such as Amnesty International sometimes dispatch human rights observers who serve similar roles to legal observers.
