Rights people can actually claim, institutions that answer.
Accountability works from both ends. Citizens need to know what they are entitled to and how to ask for it; local institutions need the systems and confidence to respond.
We train community paralegals, support public accountability forums, and help councils publish and explain the decisions that affect people’s lives.
Citizens often cannot claim rights they do not know they have, while local institutions lack the systems to be accountable.
We build legal literacy among citizens while strengthening the transparency and responsiveness of local government.
Citizens, community paralegals and local government officials.
