Knowledge Production

What motivates us?

We are driven by a commitment to address the challenges posed by unfair laws and policies
We believe that fostering public outreach and awareness campaigns empowers individuals to influence policymakers and bring about vital changes. This collective action is founded on a clear understanding of the legal landscape, peoples’ rights, and their power to hold the government accountable.

 

Communication is Key

 


Understanding the rules that govern your life shouldn't require a law degree. Our goal is to make legal information accessible to everyone. At SEEDS, our team of lawyers and communication experts collaborates to simplify and explain information and bridge the gap between legal complexities and public understanding. We involve the community through a participatory and inclusive approach, allowing them to take ownership of their laws and policies. Through this approach, we empower individuals to navigate the legal landscape with confidence and awareness.

 

OUR INITIATIVES

Since its establishment in 2016, SEEDS launched various programs and initiatives to increase legal literacy through the provision of legal information in a simple format.

 

The Legal Clinic Program

Since 2019, the Legal Clinic has become an engaging platform which delivers legal knowledge in a simplified manner.

The clinic’s main focus lies on legal provisions related to Freedom of Expression, Assembly and Association, as well as elections, democracy and political participation. We strive for an accessible format and explore breakthrough rulings, insightful articles, and real-world legal practices, all accompanied by a glossary of simplified legal terms.

More than a knowledge hub, the Legal Clinic offers legal advice, referral pathways and support services. Especially in matters of censorship, restrictions to freedoms of expression, assembly and association, LGBTQ rights and women’s rights, we are here to guide you.
