Why Dharwad?
The Organizing committee primarily chose Dharwad as the city to host World Law Conclave because we want to provide a “Global Platform with Local Roots.”
WLC not only introduces the Global Community to the City of Dharwad, it also helps the local community to experience the first of its kind event in this City. Moreover, since Alexis Centre for Study and Research in Law is based in Dharwad, the event would intend to strengthen the Centre by introducing its practices to the delegates from around the world.
