  1. In leveraging alternative justice systems, we develop the legal capacity of traditional dispute resolution mechanisms to support women in their journey towards equality and access to their rights in communities that discriminate women and deny them their land ownership rights due to prevailing patriarchal cultures.
  2. Engage women from support groups in both Mwanza and Dodoma regions for the purpose of creating a network of women who are well versed with the legal framework governing women’s right to own land and property. 
  3. Create an environment for open discussion and sharing experiences among the stakeholders. This facilitates identification of challenges that hinder access to justice for women land and properties rights and forges a functional partnership between the Elders and the Court Users Committee
