Events and activities

Our volunteers take legal awareness out of the courtroom — into training halls, government offices and community spaces across India. Here is a look at some of the sessions we have been part of.

Workshops and training sessions

Interactive sessions that help participants understand the law and how to use it.

Working with law enforcement

Sessions with Customs and Police officers, who are often the first point of contact when rights are at stake.
