This 36-month project will focus on increasing women’s capacity to meaningfully participate in the law-making process. The project will bring stakeholders together to rebuild a national law reform network. The network will be used to build the capacity of women’s organizations to engage in law reform advocacy work. This will reinforce partnerships between feminist law reform experts including feminist law students, legal academics, lawyers and leaders of women’s organizations. Systemic solutions will be shared with relevant decision-makers, including government and other law-making bodies, to inform change and achieve equality in the law-making process.
