HuMa (Association for Community and Ecology-Based Law Reform)

HuMa is a non-profit non-governmental organization whose work focuses on the issue of law reform in the natural resources sector. The concept of law reform proposed by HuMa emphasises the importance of recognition of indigenous peoples’ and local communities’ rights to natural resources and preservation of ecology. We believe that the law reform process must place indigenous peoples and local communities as its main actors.

In accordance with our vision and mission, HuMa's ultimate goal is to push for reform to legal systems and practices, to enable them to deliver justice to marginalised communities and to support ecological preservation with respect for the values of humanity and social-cultural diversity.
