The g7+ in partnership with Youth Association for Strengthening Justice in Timor-Leste (AJHJ-TL), organized socialization activity on “Access to Formal Justice in Timor-Leste” to students at the Secondary School of São Pedro, Comoro, Dili on Saturday, 9 July 2022.

The School Director, Father Matias thanked the organizers for implementing this activity, which is in-line with their school program that provide opportunity to students to learn their right in access to justice, a subject that is outside of the curriculum. He hopes that this important activity can be expanded to other students in their school in the future.

The President of AJHJTL thanked g7+ for the support that made possible for this activity to happen. As an association that brings together youth who study Law from different universities, they hope that they can do something small that contribute to increase public including students’ awareness on how to access to formal justice in Timor-Leste.

 

Chief Operating Officer of g7+ Dr. Felix Piedade informed that Justice is one of the thematic areas that g7+ promote for peer learning and sharing of experience among member countries. Access to Justice has been one of the main challenges that faced by many of g7+ member countries including Timor-Leste therefore he hopes that a collaboration with AJHJ-TL will bring justice closer to communities.
