MENA CONFERENCE 2010

MENA Rule of Law Conference

The WJP utilized its distinctive multidisciplinary approach for a two-day action-oriented Middle East & North Africa Conference on June 25-26, 2010 at the prestigious Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane, Morocco.

This invitation-only event convened an unparalleled number of regional leaders from various disciplines. It represented a distinct opportunity to promote interdisciplinary understanding of Access to Justice challenges, incubate sustainable actions, and bring long-lasting impact to the region.

The MENA Conference debated Rule of Law issues relevant to the region with a topical focus on Access to Justice in a broad sense, exploring the political, social, economic, and cultural issues related to "rights" and "justice."
