Advocating for Equality and Women’s Rights in Zambia

At the National Legal Aid Clinic for Women (NLACW), advocacy goes beyond words — it drives real change. Working closely with policymakers, NLACW develops policy briefs, submits recommendations to Parliament, and actively lobbies for reforms that protect and empower women.

The organisation’s mission is clear: to challenge laws and policies that discriminate against women and to champion those that promote equality, fairness, and justice.

By ensuring gender equality is central to Zambia’s legal framework, NLACW is helping shape a society where women’s rights are recognised, protected, and upheld.

The advancement of women is not just a cause — it’s a fundamental human right.

National Legal Aid Clinic for Women (NLACW) was established in 1990 to provide affordable legal aid services to women and children from marginalised social sectors who have been victims of social injustice. Often these people cannot afford the cost of hiring a lawyer to represent them in their pursuit of justice. NLACW offers legal services, representation, legal information and education and conducts advocacy for policy and law reform on women and children’s rights. NLACW’s activities are financed by donations from their mother body, the Law Association of Zambia (LAZ), client contributions and co-operating partners. NLACW wants to see a society where underprivileged women and children have fair and equal access to legal rights through legal representation.
