Lub§Law DAY 2022 - Modern challenges of legal education

At the Faculty of Law, Canon Law and Administration at KUL, we do not educate for education's sake, we educate people who will significantly influence the functioning of the country, and the judiciary and will protect citizens' rights and freedom - said dean WPPKiA prof. Andrzej Herbet, during the Lub§Law DAY 2022. The theme of the first edition of the event addressed to the Lublin legal community were the challenges of legal education. They were discussed not only by academic lecturers from both Lublin law faculties (KUL and UMCS) but also by practitioners. The debate was followed to by a large group of law students.

The organizers intended that Lub§Law DAY shall become an annual meeting of the Lublin legal community. The attendance during the first meeting, which took place on May 31, proves the need for such initiative. The debate gathered over 400 people - lecturers, students, but also practitioners: judges, attorneys and legal advisors.

The co-organizer of the meeting was the Catholic University of Lublin Development Foundation. Its president Tomasz Tokarski drew attention to the importance of lawyers in every democratic state. Lawyers are there to protect citizens against negative phenomena and help them in life difficulties - he said. What’s more, Vice Chancellor for KUL Education prof. Ewa Trzaskowska, paid attention to the holistic aspect of law studies, thanks to which graduates find employment not only in legal professions, but also where the law is applied - in public administration, uniformed services, or foreign service. Therefore, law studies must prepare for further professional training, which takes place, for example, within legal corporations.
