Rwanda among countries pushing for harmonization of legal systems across the East African region
The East African Law Society is pushing for the harmonization of the legal systems across the region, to enhance the quality of legal practice, but also encourage the formulation of a regulatory framework for cross border legal practice. Formed in 1995, the East Africa Law Society, brings together individual lawyer-members from the region as well as National Bar associations from Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Zanzibar, Rwanda, and Burundi. Michael Baleke reports of the society’s meeting that opened here in Kampala today.
