Welcome to The Foundation for Public Interest Law and Development

The Foundation for Public Interest Law and Development (FPIL&D) also known as (The Pro Bono Centre) is an organisation founded in 2019 by a group of passionate lawyers. The organization was created with the primary objective of ensuring that Africa is a society that works for all.

We use Legal Research, strategic litigation, advocacy, and legal empowerment to promote and advocate for issues of public interest law and sustainable development. We also raise informed citizens that will engage the government on laws and policies demanding accountability, good governance and development, and we help people in need of legal assistance by connecting them to volunteer lawyers willing to render pro bono legal services.
