Handbook on Access to Legal Aid in Africa
The Handbook draws together innovations and lessons learned across African countries in the intricate area of legal aid service delivery in the criminal justice system. It highlights many instances of promising grassroots initiatives in a wide variety of countries. It is hoped that these practices will encourage and stimulate further innovative efforts to provide more inclusive access to justice for all in the criminal justice system, particularly for the poor and marginalized. The breadth and depth of information in the Handbook allow for better adaptation to specific country contexts, as well as for better coordination between the various participants.
