Junior lawyers programme
Coopération Humanitaire Luxembourg relies on a programme of young volunteer lawyers from Luxembourg who travel to the Philippines to support abused and raped girls in their legal proceedings against their offenders.
The mission of the young volunteer lawyers is to prepare the girls for court, to accompany them with their social worker to court, to find local lawyers who help the association in the legal proceedings, to create a database for statistics and to establish a training programme for the different judicial actors in order to improve the rights of the victim and the witnesses.
