ABOUT THE HOSTS
The SADC Lawyers Association is the representative body of lawyers, law societies and bar associations in the 15 member SADC region.
Formed in 1999 at an inaugural meeting of lawyers in the SADC Region that was held in Maputo, Mozambique, the mission of the
Association is to uphold and defend the rule of law without fear or favour. At its formation, the headquarters of the Association is located
in South Africa and hosted by the Law Society of South Africa. In 2003, the office relocated to Botswana and was registered in that country
under the Societies Act in April of 2003. The office of the Association was moved from Gaborone, Botswana to Pretoria, South Africa on
the 17th of March 2011 following a resolution by the 2009 Annual General Meeting held in Livingstone, Zambia to relocate the office.
The Law Association of Zambia (LAZ) is a professional corporate body established in 1973 by the Law Association of Zambia Act, Chapter 31 of the
Laws of Zambia. Its predecessor was the Law Society of Zambia which was established by the Law Society of Zambia (Private) Act Chapter 47 of the
repealed Edition of the Laws of Zambia. LAZ represents the legal profession in Zambia and the Association currently has a membership of more than
1,000 legal practitioners.
