Welcome Message & Strategic Vision

The law is increasingly becoming multifaceted and global. To keep up with the changing trend, the Faculty of Law, Egerton University has partnered with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), Amkeni Wakenya, to provide legal aid within Nakuru County. It is an effort towards securing our students future professional advancement while giving back to the society.

My vision for the Faculty is to use Legal Aid as a flagship project to produce students with hands-on quality education in Research and Human Rights discourse in tandem with the Faculty’s vision. The project is designed to facilitate enhanced access to justice by the indigent and marginalized in society more specifically the women, children, persons with disabilities and persons living with HIV-AIDS within Nakuru County.

The Faculty has an embedded Legal Aid Clinic which operates twice in a week, Tuesday’s and Thursday’s from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. The students attend to these cases. However, in complicated scenarios, the faculty staff are involved for purposes of assisting the students in the delivery of services.
