Our Statement of Principals
The five fundamental principles establish the ethical, operational, and institutional framework for the activities of the AFA association. These principles are at the heart of our approach towards achieving our objectives.
The Principle of humanity
The urge to provide assistance, without distinction, to detainees and victims of grave abuses engendered the birth of the AFA association. All such endeavors are to guarantee detainees’ right to a fair trial, to obtain legal aid, and to access justice guarantees.
The Principle of impartiality
We work to provide equal treatment, without discrimination, on the grounds of nationality, race, religious beliefs, class, or political affiliations. The endeavors are to relieve the suffering of individuals, being guided solely by their needs, and to prioritize the most urgent cases of distress.
The Principle of independence
Adala for all (AFA) is an independent association that strives to maintain independence, at all times, to operate in conformity with its own set of principles.
The Principle of voluntary service
We work through a network of lawyers and jurists who offer free and voluntary legal aid to victims.
