What we focus on.
Our practice areas.
— The seven pre-conditions to free human potential that we work on.
Access to Knowledge, Information Integrity & Media Viability
We work to protect and promote the rights to privacy, freedom of expression, access to information, and a free press, both online and offline.
Our work supports media sustainability, healthy information ecosystems, and the legal and policy frameworks that enable journalists, civil society, and communities to access and share knowledge freely.
Freedom of Expression
Equality, Inclusion & Freedom from Violence
We work to advance substantive equality and meaningful inclusion across Africa, with a particular focus on gender justice, child rights, and the eradication of gender-based violence. Our work supports law reform, policy advocacy, and capacity-building to dismantle structural barriers and uphold the rights and dignity of all people.
Equality
Responsible AI, Platform Accountability & Technology-Facilitated Harms
We work to ensure that AI and digital platforms operate in ways that respect fundamental rights and serve the public interest across Africa.
Our work maps AI governance frameworks, advocates for platform transparency and accountability, and develops practical tools to address technology-facilitated harms.
AI
Climate Justice & Sustainability
We work to build climate resilience through sustainability, environmental justice, and open governance, with a focus on ensuring that affected communities have meaningful access to information and participation in decisions shaping Africa’s energy transition and environmental future.
Climate Justice
Ethical Leadership, Good Governance & Viable Systems
We partner with civil society organisations, social enterprises, and public institutions to build the governance structures, strategies, and systems they need to thrive and lead with integrity.
We offer organisational development, compliance support, and strategic guidance to help mission-driven actors operate effectively and sustainably.
Good Governance
Inclusive Markets & Fair Competition
We work at the intersection of competition law, digital markets, and public interest advocacy, supporting efforts to ensure that markets work for people, not just dominant players.
We contribute research, submissions, and strategic advice on market inquiries, media economics, and the fair distribution of digital dividends.
Just Economy
Multilateralism & The Rule of Law
Our work promotes active African participation in regional and international legal and governance processes, from the African Union to the United Nations.
We support law reform, treaty development, and civic engagement to strengthen multilateral institutions and advance rights-based approaches to global governance.
Rule of Law
We envisage a world where everyone, everywhere can free their potential.
