ABOUT THIS MANUAL<br />
This reference manual is intended to act as a guide to paralegals (Namibia's<br />
community educator/advocates) and other people and organisations that<br />
provide advice regarding Namibians' legal, civil, and human rights. The manual<br />
draws on the extensive experience of the community-based paralegals who,<br />
since 1998, have been serving their communities on a volunteer basis working<br />
under the auspices of the Namibia Paralegal Association (NPA). These<br />
paralegals assist Namibians with the challenges they face in their everyday lives.<br />
The manual was written and designed by a team of lawyers and law students<br />
working in collaboration with the NPA, with a view toward enriching the<br />
reader's understanding of certain areas of law, the kinds of challenges that<br />
people face in trying to advocate for their rights, and the strategi<a title="Namibia Access to Justice Paralegal Manual page 1" href="http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/ddffaf6e?page=1"> NAMIBIA ACCESS TO JUSTICE PARALEGAL MANUAL</a>
