Founded in 2014 in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, Vinnovate is a dynamic non-profit organization committed to social and technological research.
Saral Kanoon Foundation is a not-for-profit legal empowerment initiative dedicated to making justice accessible, understandable, and actionable for every individual, regardless of their socio-economic background, education level, or geographic location.
We operate at the grassroots level to bridge the gap between citizens and the legal system, working across a wide spectrum of civil, social, and economic justice issues. From legal literacy and rights awareness to community legal aid and policy advocacy, our work empowers people to understand the law, claim their rights, and seek redress with confidence.
“At Saral Kanoon, we do not just interpret the law — we translate it into dignity, access, and empowerment.”
A just and inclusive society where every citizen has equal access to legal protection and justice, irrespective of language, literacy, or location. A future where legal systems are no longer barriers but bridges—where every person, from rural villages to urban settlements, can navigate their legal rights without fear or confusion.
“A future where justice is not just heard in courts, but felt in every home and every life.”
To simplify the law and democratize access to justice through legal education, community-based legal aid, digital innovation, and rights-based advocacy.
“Our mission is simple: bring the law to the people—and empower them to use it.”
“Justice is not only about laws in books—it is about rights in action. That is what Saral Kanoon works for.”
Saral Kanoon's work is driven by stakeholder participation and rigorous field research, ensuring practical, impactful solutions.
We transform complex legal jargon into clear, actionable information for everyday use.
