ALAC helps citizens turn corruption concerns into clear, actionable reports.
The Advocacy and Legal Advice Centre is TI-Zambia's citizen support channel for people who need free guidance on corruption, maladministration, abuse of office, bribery, service-delivery failures, land concerns, and related accountability issues. ALAC receives complaints, helps citizens organise the facts, gives practical legal advice, refers suitable matters to mandated authorities, and follows up so reports do not disappear into silence.
From complaint to accountability pathway
ALAC listens to citizens, records the substance of each concern, checks whether the matter appears to involve corruption or maladministration, and advises the complainant on possible next steps. Where a case needs formal investigation, ALAC can refer it to bodies such as law-enforcement agencies, local authorities, oversight institutions, or other competent public offices, then track progress and use recurring patterns for evidence-based advocacy.
A stronger report starts with facts
- What happened, when it happened, and where it happened.
- Names of offices, institutions, suppliers, or officials involved where known.
- Documents, photos, receipts, screenshots, messages, or witness details.
- Any previous steps taken with public offices or law-enforcement agencies.
