The overarching objective of the AVCB II project is to contribute to improving access to justice for disadvantaged and marginalized groups in Bangladesh.
The specific objectives of the project are:
- To make local authorities more responsive to local justice needs and offer appropriate legal services in the form of well-functioning village courts
- To empower local people, especially women, the poor and vulnerable groups to seek remedies for injustices and to resolve their disputes at the local level in an expeditious, transparent and affordable manner.
