A Human Rights Club Alumnus Establishes a CBO and a Paralegal Unit in Singida

Enold is a 28-year-old young man who pioneered the establishment of a human rights club at the University of Dar es Salaam College of Education (DUCE) in May 2016. Under the mentorship of LHRC, the human rights club members, including Enold, enhanced their skills and knowledge of legal and human rights issues. By 2017, the club had 1500 members.

After finishing his University studies, Enold went back to his home village in Singida Region, where he established an organization called Gender Development Focus (GDF) in August 2019. The organization seeks to advance women’s rights. In 2020, he established a paralegal unit to enhance access to justice in the region and assisted another paralegal unit to register under the Legal Aid Act of 2017. His paralegal unit is called Wasaidizi wa Kisheria Singida and it has been fully registered.
