Law Excursions
One cannot read law in theory alone. A more balanced approach to legal education involves both the substantive (theory) and procedural (practical, experiential or clinical) aspects. While we believe that most law school curricula focus more on the substantive approach to legal education, our range of excursions to different places of legal interests such as the courts, legislative or parliamentary houses, and law offices offer students the benefits of a qualitative clinical approach to learning the law. Law students also have the first-hand opportunity of practical legal knowledge from our interactive sessions with senior members of the bar and the bench.

As part of the activities during this week-long excursion, participants will have the opportunity to see international law in action. Participants will also have an interactive session with the President of the AfCHPR, Justice Sylvain Oré on Monday, November 4, 2019. We believe that an excursion to these places of legal interests and interactive sessions that we will be having with the heads of these institutions are great ways for law students, lawyers, and other participants who will be joining the trip to learn not only how international law is made but also how it works in both theoretical and practical terms.
