The Access team focuses on outreach and education about the law and justice. The team’s goal is to promote access to justice and legal information to rangatahi across Tāmaki Makaurau. 

Their school presentations involve constructing informative workshops in various educational facilities, predominantly secondary schools. The team’s aim is to enlighten young people about social justice issues happening in Aotearoa, encourage them to respect and question the law and, most importantly, bridge the knowledge gap between youth and our legal system. 

These presentations aim to educate students on a range of relevant legal areas and social justice issues such as:

• Employment and Renting Rights and Responsibilities

• Tikanga in the Criminal Justice System

• The Gender Pay Gap

• Justice, Governance and Democracy

• Human Rights in Aotearoa

• Democracy vs Dictatorship

• What Makes a Lawyer

•  Legislative Interpretation
