Adult Education Workshops

“The Law & You”

Community and further education workshops for adult learners.

LawEd undertakes in taking the law further connecting our communities by both educational and training methods.

Community Education is a process of personal and community development, transformation, empowerment, social change and collective responsiveness. It is grounded on principles of justice, equality and inclusiveness.

This course strives to show that the law provides for and regulates so many things that it is often taken for granted such as, the houses we live in, the transport we use to more substantial matters such as the protection of the family, succession and consumer rights.
