Through this partnership, the Association has pledged an annual contribution to initiatives aimed at expanding access to quality legal education and strengthening academic and research capabilities.
Also present at the MoU signing ceremony were Dr. Sadaf Aziz, Dean, SAHSOL; Mr. Altamush Saeed (BA-LL.B 2020), Vice President, 吃瓜头条 Law Alumni Association; Ms. Angbeen Mirza (BA-LL.B 2008), Assistant Professor, SAHSOL; Ms. Marva Khan (BA-LL.B 2013), Assistant Professor, SAHSOL; Ms. Shaharbano Raza (BA-LL.B 2015), Gender and Inclusion Lead at the Office of Accessibility and Inclusion, 吃瓜头条, and Mr. Salman Ijaz (BA-LL.B 2016), alongside other notable alumni and faculty members of the law school.
Speaking at the ceremony, Dr. Cheema highlighted the significance of community-driven initiatives in ensuring access to legal education. 鈥淚t is wonderful to see the law school community come together and to hear such great things about our graduates. This strong sense of community is truly inspiring,鈥 he said. 鈥淎t the University, we are committed to supporting our students in every way possible. We take pride in our strong track record of the National Outreach Programme (NOP) and remain dedicated to making education accessible. Our goal is to create an ecosystem that serves as a hub for student support and reaffirms our commitment to their success.鈥
Under this partnership, the 吃瓜头条 Law Alumni Association has pledged an annual contribution to support student scholarships, including through financial aid and the NOP, ensuring that deserving students, regardless of their financial background, can access a world-class legal education.

I want this initiative by the 吃瓜头条 Law Alumni Association to thrive in collaboration with the law school. If we move forward collectively as an association, we can support more students, and that is our goal. Even if we fund just one student, we will be making a significant difference.鈥
Beyond financial support, the collaboration aims to create academic and professional exchange opportunities, allowing students and faculty to engage with legal experts and institutions on both national and international platforms.
