The Female Lawyers Association, The Gambia (FLAG), is a non-political, non-governmental and non-profit making association made up of female members of the legal profession who, in various ways, aim to contribute to the development and realization of the rights of women and children in The Gambia.
The association aims to procure changes to the laws of The Gambia for the protection and wellbeing of women and children, with the objective of eliminating violence against them, promote freedom of expression, sexual and reproductive health rights, and support them to participate effectively in the development process of the country.
In line with its vision, there are three main objectives:
-
- Lobby for gender equality in The Gambia through legislative reforms, public education and advocacy.
-
- Enhance and promote the welfare and legal status of women and children.
-
- Promote the principles and aims of regional and international legal instruments regarding women and children.
The organization has been involved in research and advocacy for the elimination of all forms of violence against women and children and offers advice through legal clinics.
