At the core of our programming is a deep commitment to increase access to justice for poor and marginalized groups, promote women’s rights and gender equality, and advance racial and ethnic equality.
Global Rights’ programs rarely comprise just one of these three key focuses, but, instead, overlap and intertwine. For example, in the Maghreb, we administer a court accompaniment program that builds the capacity of local women-led and women-focused NGOs to provide ongoing legal counseling to women in their communities, accompany them to court, and ensure application of the laws through monitoring, documenting, and analysis of judicial decisions. Advances made in one program area necessarily inform the others.
