Our Main Goal
Our main goal is to empower vulnerable communities by ensuring equitable and affordable access to the justice system. We believe the current legal structure is exclusionary due to limited access, and we aim to bridge the gap between the Bench and the Public. NNF collaborates with lawyers, academicians, and public-spirited individuals to promote a society that upholds the true spirit of the Indian Constitution and Human Rights. Currently, we operate in Delhi and, with your support, aim to expand our reach to other parts of the country.

Our team at NNF is a diverse and dedicated group of professionals who share a common commitment to equality, inclusivity, and justice. We believe in collaboration, open dialogue that values every voice.
