A national legal aid website that helps people find their nearest Justice Centre, understand their rights and reach a lawyer for free.
Justice Centres Uganda
Background
Since 2009, Justice Centres Uganda has given free legal help to poor, vulnerable and marginalised people, through 13 centres serving 39 districts. Many people only look for help in a moment of crisis, so the website had to answer one question quickly: where can I get help, and what are my rights?
Solution
We designed and built the site around what people need most. An interactive map shows every centre, and typing a district brings up the one that serves it, with its address, phone lines and directions. The toll-free helpline and Get Legal Help stay within easy reach. Know Your Rights puts 193 plain-language guides into topics such as land, criminal law and succession, and a searchable glossary explains 133 legal terms. A library of 32 guides and handbooks is free to download, and accessibility tools let visitors change the text size, raise the contrast and pause animations.
