BarefootLaw’s 10 Year Anniversary Celebration – Failing Forward: Building resilience through Innovation

Our member, BarefootLaw, as one of the forerunners of innovation in access to justice, invites all the legal enthusiasts for a day of reflection and deliberation on the future of law. How do we collectively force structural changes to make the legal services more accessible for the most underserved persons and communities? How do we creatively use technology to promote access to justice and how can technology be used effectively to achieve the SDG16 goals?

On this occasion, they aim to reflect on their journey, recognizing that innovation often blooms from the seeds of failure. “Failing Forward” as the central theme focuses on the invaluable lessons and opportunities that arise when we embrace innovation in the field of law. It is heartfelt exploration of the lessons, challenges, and opportunities that have shaped BarefootLaw’s journey in redefining access to justice in grassroots communities.

Celebrate with BarefootLaw as they look back on ten years of using technology and innovation to facilitate access to justice in Africa.
