Welcome to HALA!
The Harvard African Law Association [HALA]
is a student organization at the Harvard Law School. The mission of HALA is to unite African students and students interested in Africa, and increase awareness of legal, social and economic issues that shape and concern the continent of Africa. MEMBERSHIP If you are interested in African countries, cultures or people, you should join HALA! HISTORY The Harvard African Law Association [HALA]
was formally recognized as a graduate student organization by the Harvard
Law School [HLS] on November 6, 2001. Prior to this time, Africa was the only
region of the world for which there was no student organization at the HLS.
The ever-increasing number of continental Africans in the student body of
the HLS motivated the establishment of the HALA. It is hoped that HALA
will also serve as the nucleus for a future HLS African alumni network.
