"Through her work with USAID, Yasmin trains justice promoters (SWLA also calls them community paralegals), and community volunteers on Somalia’s different legal systems. These groups serve as frontline legal workers helping community members navigate the justice systems in Somalia. The program focuses on marginalized groups including women, ethnic minorities, the elderly, and children. But it also helps the entire community because it has led to educating men and clan elders on issues affecting women such as gender-based violence and gender norms."
