Mission

AFLA’s mission is to address the legal and human rights challenges facing Africa. AFLA seeks to create opportunities through which legal institutions in Africa can develop norms and practices that prevent human rights violations. Hence, our efforts are geared towards creating a new legal awareness in Africa by addressing marginalised and undertreated areas of human rights and international justice. In this connection, AFLA works to empower female victims of rights violations, and other vulnerable groups, to participate meaningfully in the justice process at national, regional and international levels.
