Inheritance Rights Report

A multi-jurisdictional research report by DLA Piper commissioned by UNICEF analysing the legislative and practical barriers to orphans of HIV/AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa enforcing their inheritance rights across nine jurisdictions.

In many countries local custom and weak law enforcement prevent children from inheriting their parents’ property and this report will help to inform the policy and advocacy work of the firm’s global partner UNICEF in this space.
