Centre For Law And Social Action Clasa, Lagos, Nigeria, West Africa

The Centre for Law and Social Action [CLASA], a non-profit, non-partisan research and advocacy organization, brings together scholars and activists in law and the humanities for inter-disciplinary research and advocacy on governance, development, democratisation, human and peoples’ rights, law reform, social issues, economic policy and international affairs. CLASA informs and shapes policy dialogue and political action through research, analysis and advocacy.

CLASA’s work integrates social research, legal and policy analysis and syntheses of quantitative research and best practices in governance and development — building upon contemporary thought in political economy and years of experience in public policy debates. Key tools include research, analysis, policy and advocacy.
