Rule of Law in Mauritania

Our work in Mauritania

Establishing a legal working group

In May 2015, ABA ROLI established a working group that brings together local stakeholders to focus on legal and policy reform, analysis of current slavery cases that are stalled before domestic courts, obstacles to securing legal identity documents and strategic litigation.

Supporting community-based paralegals

ABA ROLI will partner with a local CSO with a particular focus on women’s rights to train and deploy community-based paralegals. Paralegals will raise awareness about political and civil rights and assist individuals and communities in overcoming basic administrative or legal hurdles, including in obtaining legal identity documents.

Fostering Civil Society Organization collaboration

ABA ROLI is working with a coalition of Mauritanian CSOs as they develop their advocacy and collaboration skills to better advance the rights of the marginalized.
