27 June 2023: Sensitization Workshop on Legal Aid.

The Legal Aid Center and the Bar Council of Bhutan in partnership with UNDP conducted a day-long workshop to sensitize private lawyers on the Legal Aid Rules and Pro Bono Guidelines. The workshop was held to improve understanding of access to justice for people with disability, women and survivors of gender-based violence which is important to be aware of while delivering justice. Another objective was to determine the need for specialized capacity building for lawyers in different fields of law, to enhance their capacity as service providers for legal aid.
