Themis Methodology for Access to Justice
This project promotes legal training for female community leaders on
subjects related mainly to women’s human rights and the structure of the
state, so that they can exercise their citizenship and increase their
access to information. After training, women are ready to work as
People’s Legal Agents (PLPs – Promotoras Legais Populares) and are
enabled to act as citizenship and human rights agents in their
communities, building on the knowledge they acquired during the course
and promoting social control and advocacy.
