Mission LDIA Academy
Another LDIA LAB initiative is the 𝐋𝐃𝐈𝐀 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲. Several LDIA members actively participate in this program. Our mission is to bridge the gap between disadvantaged students and the legal profession, ensuring that talented individuals from all backgrounds have the opportunity to succeed and thrive in their legal careers.
The LDIA Labs aim to foster a more inclusive legal community by equipping everyone with the tools and support they need to flourish.
7 May – Meeting
On May 7, we had our second meeting for the LDIA Academy, bringing together several dedicated LDIA members. The insights shared were incredibly valuable, and while the plan is still evolving, we are heading in the right direction.
A big thank you to our host, AKD, for the lovely lunch and warm hospitality.
Excited to continue this journey and make meaningful progress together!
