Northern Advocacy Organisation (NAO), in collaboration with the Somalia Embassy in Kenya and the Nowerign Refugee Council, proudly served the urban refugee community in Eastleigh, Nairobi. Through targeted legal aid clinics, we not only provided crucial legal assistance but also empowered individuals with knowledge of their fundamental rights.
Our dedicated team offered accessible and efficient legal guidance, addressing the unique challenges faced by refugees navigating the Kenyan legal system. This included:
- Informative sessions: We educated individuals on their basic rights, covering areas like asylum procedures, employment regulations, and access to essential services. This proactive approach empowered refugees to understand their legal standing and confidently advocate for themselves.
- Individual case representation: When legal representation was needed, NAO stepped in to advocate on behalf of refugees who might otherwise be unable to afford legal fees. This ensured fair and just outcomes in individual cases, upholding the rights of each refugee seeking assistance.
By partnering with key organizations and offering both proactive knowledge sharing and individual case representation, NAO made a significant impact on the lives of urban refugees in Eastleigh. We remain committed to empowering vulnerable communities and ensuring equal access to justice and legal support.
