– Avocats des Sans Voix –
Avocats des Sans Voix (ASV); translated to “Lawyers of the Voiceless”, is a Congolese non-profit which was founded by Leon Otshudi Okondjo a lawyer in Kinshasa. ASV strives to amplify the voices of the easily ignored; the marginalised in the society. Abandoned and wrongly convicted, and then subject to sexual violence, the founder’s mother’s plight and his own plight in a bonded child labour system inspired him to start ASV. The goals of ASV are to advocate, protect and empower some of Congo’s underserved communities.
