Abstract
This research critically examines the potential of public interest litigation (PIL) to advocate for access to human and social rights justice in Uganda. While the Constitution of Uganda upholds fundamental freedoms and human rights, PIL remains underutilized in the country. The study emphasizes the importance of PIL in providing socioeconomic justice to marginalized segments of society and highlights the role of competent public interest litigators in championing the rights of the disadvantaged. Additionally, it discusses the need for legislative amendments to facilitate easier access to PIL and calls for the appointment of morally upright judges to administer justice impartially. Drawing on international precedents and legal frameworks, the study underscores the significance of PIL in safeguarding collective liberties and advancing the rule of law. Keywords: Collective liberties, Constitution, Human rights justice, Lawsuits, Public interest litigation
