Capacity Building |
Through the exchange of knowledge and the organisation of seminars and meetings, we seek to strengthen and build the capacity of domestic human rights advocates and groups to effectively utilise domestic and international remedies. We prepare and disseminate templates for the use of lawyers and NGOs for their litigation activities.
Human Rights Litigation in Turkey: Challenges, Prospects and Strategies
On 3-4th October, the Turkey Litigation Support Project (TLSP) organised a roundtable on the use of strategic litigation in the context of the human rights crisis in Turkey. The meeting took place at the Law Faculty of the University of Middlesex in London, and the TLSP team was joined by key lawyers, NGO representatives, academics and activists engaged in or supporting human rights litigation in Turkey. During the meeting, the participants shared their experiences and discussed numerous issues related to the challenges of human rights litigation in Turkey and beyond to reflect on how human rights litigators might think strategically going forward.
