Legal Education & Awareness Programme ( LEAP)

Overview

LEAP is a pro-bono initiative that promotes access to justice. We aim to do so by raising legal awareness among youths on areas of law relevant to or interesting to them. This includes their legal rights, the legal consequences that may arise from committing crimes, and how the law protects them.

Last year, LEAP conducted sessions with youths from Thye Hua Kwan Moral Charities (THKMC). At the end of the sessions, the youths made some infographics using the legal information they learnt as part of a poster making competition! Below are some of the infographics they created:

Reflections

“I had a lot of fun taking part in LEAP last year. It taught me the importance of conveying information in a simple and understandable manner, while at the same time being adaptable and perceptive to the interests and personal experiences of the audience.”
