CUEA Law Faculty Receives 1,000 Copies of Law Journals from the Law Society of Kenya

The University Faculty of Law received 1000 copies of law journals from the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), marking a significant contribution towards strengthening legal education and research at the University.

The donation, received on 9 November 2026 at Kozlowiecki Hall, comprised copies of the LSK Journal for the year 2024 and 2025. The journals were received by the Head of the Department of Public Law and Dr. Charles Khamala, Dean of the Faculty of Law, accompanied by second- and third-year law students.

The donation follows LSK’s commitment to provide 1,000 copies of the journals to the CUEA Library. In accordance with the University's preservation arrangements, 10 copies of each journal will be retained at the Bishop McCauley Memorial Library and handed over to the Acting Chief Librarian, Ms Rosa Mbithe. Plans are also underway to distribute the remaining 970 copies among students in the second, third and fourth years of study.

The donation reflects the longstanding relationship between CUEA’s Faculty of Law and the LSK, whose mandate includes promoting legal education in Kenya. Several members of the Faculty are also members of the Society and have contributed to its professional and academic activities.

Dr. Khamala, who has served voluntarily on the LSK Editorial Committee since 2021, has participated in editorial meetings, provided oversight and published articles in the LSK Journal and the Advocate’s Professional Magazine. He has also contributed to the Society’s conferences and Continuing Professional Development seminars.

The collaboration has extended to joint activities, including the commemoration of International Justice Day earlier in 2026 by the LSK and CUEA’s Faculty of Law. CUEA law students participated in the Society’s Legal Aid Week, which ran from 26–30 October 2026.

The University’s acceptance of the donation provides an opportunity to deepen this partnership while expanding students’ access to legal scholarship and professional perspectives. They will support learning across the board including our Master’s program that has a major January 2027 intake.

The donation underscores the importance of partnerships between academic institutions and professional bodies in advancing legal education, research and professional development.
