The Legal Assistance Centre's (LAC's) Gender Research & Advocacy Project (GR&AP) team recently shared an illustrated overview of their 2021 activities, along with an updated GR&AP Publications Catalogue.

Some of the GR&AP’s highlights for 2021 include:

  • Regular ProBono newspaper columns researched and written for publication in The Namibian (16 columns published, half drafted by GR&AP and half drafted by LAC colleagues and edited by GR&AP)
  • Statute Summaries on 12 key human rights laws, grouped by theme (hopefully to be followed by future instalments)
  • Research and advocacy on a range of legal topics, including civil registration, draft bills on marriage and divorce, obsolete laws, hate speech, proposed amendments to the law on rape and domestic violence, access to abortion and various LGBT issues
  • A question-and-answer session on the Civil Registration & Identification Bill for the NGO community
  • 26 training sessions on the Child Care & Protection Act and other family laws, for professionals, community groups and schools, involving 840 participants
  • 82 media appearances, including print media, radio, television and online interviews and podcasts
