Our Areas of Expertise

FOI Advocacy & Litigation

We focus on ensuring transparency and accountability in government processes. This includes challenging government agencies that have refused to disclose information and litigating on behalf of individuals and organizations seeking to obtain government-held information.

Human Rights Litigation

We protect the fundamental rights of individuals and groups who have been subjected to violations involving a wide range of issues such as discrimination, police brutality, and freedom of speech, among others, and seek to bring justice to those who have suffered harm through legal means.

Land reforms & rural development

We promote equitable access to land resources and support the sustainable growth of rural communities. This involves advising on land ownership and tenure, supporting land-based livelihoods, and advocating for policies and programs that support rural development and the rights of rural communities.

Research & Policy Advocacy

We drive positive change and justice through the research and analysis of laws and regulations. Our advocacy strategies shape policies for equitable outcomes. With a deep understanding of legal intricacies, we navigate complexities effectively, aiming to be a catalyst for transformative change.
