2nd Annual East Africa Pre-Moot: A second-time success

From 21-25 February 2023 we proudly co-hosted 10 teams from 7 countries in Nairobi, alongside our partners Jones Day and Loyola School of Law, and with the support of our other sponsors and partners. After many months of engaging with the teams only virtually we were delighted to meet the attendees in-person, and to see everyone in action outside of a video call! We thank all of our participating teams for their enthusiasm, effort and fantastic attitudes over the five days of intensive workshops, presentations, networking opportunities and of course, the Pre-Moot competition.
