Welcome to the LLM (HRDA) Alumni Association

Although it was officially formulated during the Alumni Conference which took place at the University of Pretoria on 10 December 2009, on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the programme, the idea of creating an LLM/MPhil HRDA Alumni Association has gained ground in a number of events and testimonies over the years.

Since the pioneers completed the programme in December 2000, class or country networks have been established and exist informally.
