The North African Litigation Initiative
EIPR established North African Litigation Initiative (NALI) in 2010 to encourage NGOs and human rights defenders from North Africa to play a more active role within the African Human Rights System. Such activity is essential to ensure that North African States are promoting and protecting the rights contained in the African Charter.
NALI provides technical and financial assistance to North African NGOs and human rights defenders who wish to litigate using the African human rights system, especially the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights.
