[Call for Applications] PG Dip in Public Law focusing on Criminal Justice, Human Rights and Detention - Applications for the 2026 academic year are OPEN!
Want to be at the cutting edge of justice and human rights in Africa? This course opens up vital debates on how power is exercised through detention and criminal justice - and how law can be used to challenge abuse, inequality, and corruption.
The PG Dip aims primarily at criminal justice system officials, especially those working in or with custodial settings, as well as rights advocates and researchers. These could be public servants, members of the legal profession, the private sector, consultants and members of civil society organisations.
