On 4th of June, Natural Justice held a one day legal
training with San youth at !Khwa ttu, the San Education and Cultural Centre.
The legal training was held with fifteen San youth from southern Africa and
focused on the rights of indigenous peoples, intellectual property rights and
environmental law. The legal training course will be held on two further
occasions in 2014.
The students taking part in the legal training course are
part of an 8-month accredited Nature and Cultural Site Guide Skills Programme
run through !Khwa ttu's Training Department. During the course, San youth learn
about their roots, culture, history and traditional knowledge.
Natural Justice provides legal support and training to San
and Khoi communities in southern Africa through partnership with Heinrich Boell
Foundation and the Open Society Initiative for Southern Africa. For more
information on the work of Natural Justice with the San and Khoi please refer
