About

LAW was founded in July 2013 following three expert roundtables with UN agencies, leading human rights and legal I/NGOs, law firms and academics and consultations with over 100 relevant experts globally. This was supported by an in-depth mapping and scoping exercise to review what legal work was being undertaken by organisations on the ground in fragile and conflict affected areas. More than one year of research identified that there was a need for a non-profit organisation which focused on creative avenues for legal redress in fragile and conflict affected areas. It was envisaged that such an organisation would work on the ground, placing survivors and national lawyers in the driving seat and at the same time, linking them to highly innovative lawyers in non-conflict areas.
