The main objective of the Faculty of Law UWI Rights Advocacy Project (U-RAP) is to promote human rights, equality and social justice in the Caribbean by undertaking and participating in human rights litigation in collaboration with human rights lawyers and civil society organizations. U-RAP is currently engaged in constitutional litigation in the English speaking Caribbean, challenging laws that undermine the human dignity and human rights of sexual minorities. 

U-RAP also undertakes and supports legal and social science research that furthers knowledge about human rights and the protection of human rights in the Caribbean. The Project incorporates the work of student volunteers and assistants in all its activities.
