Law students from Mount Kenya University are set to receive a training boost in arbitration Law after the institution entered into an agreement with Law institutes in both Kenya and South Africa.
The MOU between the institution and the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (CIArb) Kenya branch and the International Law Institute - South African Centre for Excellence (ILI-SACE) is set to bolster learning in alternative dispute resolution.
This comes as the Judiciary continues to advocate for ADR as a more cost-effective method of resolving conflicts.
Speaking during the signing of the MOUs at the university's Main Campus in Thika town, MKU Vice Chancellor Prof Deogratius Jaganyi said the partnership focuses on mutual capacity building, innovation in legal practice, and advancing justice through practical, world-class learning programs.
