- Strengthening the capacity of legal professionals and WRAs to drive legal and policy reform through strategic litigation and advocacy.
- Enhancing the delivery of survivor-centered legal services through trained lawyers, paralegals, and community legal support structures.

- Identify key challenges and lessons learned, particularly in navigating the evolving context of the war in Sudan.
- Highlight promising practices that can inform future feminist legal empowerment initiatives across the region.
- Assess the project’s contribution to shifts in community attitudes toward the legal rights of women and girls.
- Analyze how strategic partnerships, networks, and sub-granting mechanisms support systemic change and local ownership.
- Evaluate to which extent the project ensured accountability to its stakeholders, including legal professionals and WRAs, community members, implementing partners, and the donor.
The evaluation will draw comparisons with the 2023 baseline assessment, helping to identify concrete changes in institutional capacity, legal service access, and policy engagement over the course of implementation.
