Press release: DURHAM UNIVERSITY GRADUATE HELPING WOMEN PRACTICE LAW IN SAUDI ARABIA
Saudi
Arabia is opening the door for more women to practice law thanks to a new
programme launched by a Durham University graduate. The Prince Sultan
University will be providing the first legal
training for women law graduates in Saudi Arabia. The first cohort of
twenty-five women will undertake a four-week programme.
This
new programme is led by the university’s law school dean Dr Ibrahim
Al-Hudaithy, a graduate of Durham Law School.
It is not the first time Durham’s law alumni have broken new ground for women lawyers in this country. In 2013, Durham Law School graduate Raya Al-Khatib became only the fifth woman to be granted a license to practice law in Saudi Arabia following her graduation.
Professor
Thom Brooks, Dean of Durham Law School, said that ‘we are proud to see our
graduates as pioneers championing the cause of opening legal practice to women
in Saudi Arabia. A very welcome first step on a long journey and we are
delighted to see our former students leading the way internationally’.
