Civic engagements build stronger, more resilient communities and ensure that democracy remains vibrant and responsive to the needs of its citizens. Caritas Fort Portal-HEWASA carries out civic education to local council leaders, youth leaders and women leaders in order to promote access to justice. We offer legal guidance and facilitate pro-bono services for discriminated individuals. We also promote human rights through awareness creation, and we seek to improve the knowledge base of local council leaders regarding their roles and their implementation of values such as good governance, accountability and transparency in services.
