点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Community legal centres have identified and addressed ways of improving access to justice for a range of groups.A historical study of a movement that successfully harnessed volunteers and created partnerships between experts and communities will produce important insights into strategies for continued success in legal centres, as well as other government and non-government organisations. The study will assist centres by documenting their strengths and challenges, encouraging self-reflection, and providing opportunities for discussion of present and future objectives. By focusing on capacity building and volunteering, and the links between the legal profession and citizens, the study will strengthen Australia's social fabric.
