5.3 Capacitation and Confidence-building
5.3.1 Mobile Legal Clinics
The lack of an efficient and accessible justice delivery system makes it
difficult and expensive for the citizenry, especially in the rural areas to
access justice. To ensure access to justice for all, ZLHR conducts mobile
legal clinics in low-income communities both in urban and rural areas.
The ZLHR team goes into various communities across the breadth of
the country and interacts with the community, discussing basic human
rights that are universally recognised and specific human rights issues
peculiar to that particular community. The MLCs ensure that the communities engage in the human rights discourse and key human rights
issues in a specific area are identified and taken up for litigation for
the greater good of the broader community at large. The aim of mobile
legal clinics is to avail justice right at the door-step of those who need it.
In 2015 ZLHR expanded mobile legal services for key populations and
vulnerable communities.
