The Prisoners Rehabilitation and Welfare Action (PRAWA) is a Non- Governmental Organization set up in December 1994 to promote institutional reforms in both formal and informal sectors for access to justice, rehabilitation, and social development of prisoners, ex-prisoners, torture victims and youths at risk.
As an organization working to promote safety and security in the African community by creating a just, humane and effective criminal justice system, PRAWA has over 20 years built a reputation as the number ONE stop centre in penal reforms not just in Nigeria but within the African region. PRAWA is currently headquartered in Enugu-Nigeria with branch offices in Lagos and Abuja but its mandate is to implement its programmes in Nigeria and other African Countries.
