Since the Law Society and the Peking University Law School signed a memorandum of understanding in April 2019, this is the fifth consecutive year that we conduct a 32-hour law course for the Peking University Law School.
Council members Careen Wong, Justin Yuen, and Greater China Legal Affairs Committee member Daniel Leung, visited Peking University as voluntary lecturers on 1 and 8 April 2023 respectively. The series lectures of “An Introduction to Legal Services and Risk Management for Cross-border Transactions” had been held online in the past few years due to pandemic. The physical lectures are finally resumed from April to June this year, so that the Law School students can interact face-to-face with 14 voluntary lecturers from The Law Society.
14 voluntary lecturers from The Law Society share their knowledge with students of the Peking University Law School from April to June.
