The agency is in the mode of legal defense organizations here in the US in that it works on changing policy and legislation, but also does targeted litigation.

It limits its work to the following populations: LGBQTSTGNC, women, indigenous, and seniors (elders).
The founders, Luis and Luis, make a yearly trip to the USA to meet with folks working on international coalitions on migration, global due process, and the global prison industrial complex.
