Committed to promoting equality, dignity, and justice in Nigeria. Our work is grounded in standards contained in Nigeria constitution & laws, international human rights law, humanitarian law, criminal law, and refugee law. In applying these standards, we are guided by those most affected and by our partners, as well as by the principles of dignity, equality, and justice. But more importantly we seek the modification of Nigeria judicial laws/policies to cover loop holes that make it possible for some citizens and institutions (e.g. the court, police etc) to serve injustice to the common man.
We engage Strategic Advocacy to promote equality, dignity, and justice in Nigeria: We elevate the voices of those who do not have the power to speak for themselves. We fight for the vulnerable by engaging the powerful and the influential in their defence when necessary. We strive to build political support to facilitate the achievement of expected outcomes. Finally we focus on issues strategically, selecting projects where we can secure concrete change in people’s lives including the rights of those undergoing human right abuse and injustice especially the indigent & vulnerable, prisoners, refugees and IDPs in Nigeria.
