Program

The theme of the Conference is Landscapes of Thought and our aim is to foster a Conference environment that encourages bold conversations, fresh perspectives, and ground-breaking ideas.

Attendees will be exposed to a broad range of topics related to family law from a diversity of local, national and international lawyers, allied professionals, academics and the Judiciary. 

In the meantime, to assist in your planning, below is a brief overview of the Conference schedule.
