LEGAL EDUCATION PROGRAMME (1)
A 2016 evaluation of the work of the LRF found that the LRF has helped change lives in a
variety of ways through making people aware of their rights and training them not only to
claim those rights but also to assert them. Through its legal education programme, LRF has
lent credence to Nelson Mandela’s assertion that “education is the most powerful weapon we
can use to change the world”. A holistic approach was taken to the community sensitisation
so that both victims and perpetrators of human rights violations were helped to understand the
legal implications of their actions.
