Saint Columban Law School has successfully secured funding grant under the European Union โ Governance in Justice (EU-GOJUST) Program through the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) for its Clinical Legal Education Program.
Following a rigorous evaluation process involving more than sixty applicants nationwide, the SCLS-CLEP proposal, "๐ฆ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐ด๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ป๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐๐ผ ๐๐๐๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ถ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ (๐ฃ๐๐๐) ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ถ๐๐," was selected as one of the grant recipients. The project aims to improve the access to justice of PDLs through legal aid, legal empowerment, and community-based legal services.
The successful grant is the result of the collaborative efforts of Saint Columban Law School, led by Dean Danny Valenzuela, CLEP Director Atty. Alyendy Mar Adlaon, Law Student Practitioners, SCLS Faculty, and the College Administration, whose commitment to clinical legal education and public service contributed to the development of a competitive and impactful proposal.
Through this grant, the CLEP of SCLS will further enhance the experience of law student practitioners through concrete practice experiences while providing necessary legal services to underprivileged communities, especially Persons Deprived of Liberty.
This grant reflects Saint Columban Law School's continuing commitment to advancing access to justice, strengthening legal education, and fostering social responsibility through quality clinical legal education.
