Advocacy and Access to Justice

Published on Aug 25, 2024

Access to justice is a fundamental human right, essential for the protection and promotion of all other rights. It ensures that individuals and communities can seek and obtain remedies through formal or informal institutions of justice, in compliance with human rights standards. However, in many parts of the world, access to justice remains elusive for marginalized and vulnerable populations due to barriers such as poverty, discrimination, and lack of legal awareness. This is where advocacy plays a crucial role.
