Afghans inside and outside of the country need legal assistance and many lawyers, firms, and legal aid service providers are mobilizing to respond to these needs. But many are overwhelmed and there is an urgent need to strengthen referral pathways to pro bono support for individual cases, while also building, funding and implementing collaborative pro bono projects to address the legal needs arising from the situation in Afghanistan, both in the short and longer term.

PILnet, together with selected legal partners, are seeking to map existing pro bono resources, to facilitate matching of these with the organizations that most need them.

This survey is to understand what pro bono and other resources you or your organization can provide to Afghan refugees and civil society organizations working with them. Thank you for your participation.

Information Sharing

May we share your contact details?*

I am happy for my contact details to be shared publicly so that people can contact me directly to enquire about pro bono support. I do not want my contact details shared publicly and would like cases to be referred to me by PILnet, APNOR and/or selected affiliates* who are supporting referrals of individual cases.

* PILnet is working with APNOR and selected legal partners to support with referrals and matching of pro bono services.

May we share your full responses to this survey?*

I am happy for the contents of the survey to be shared with PILnet, APNOR and/or selected affiliates involved in mapping pro bono support and strengthening referral pathways. I only want the content of this survey to be shared with PILnet.

If you do not want your contact details shared publicly and if PILnet, APNOR, and/or selected affiliates receive cases suited to your jurisdiction/scope of work, how would you like these cases referred to you?*

Would you like to continue to receive further updates from PILnet, APNOR and partners regarding the legal needs arising from the Afghan situation?*

Yes No

Do you have any suggestions regarding other ways we can stay connected and updated? (E.g. establishment of a LinkedIn group, a google group, other community of practice platforms that you have used).?

Would you like to share any other comments or questions?
