NLUO launches double credit course on contemporary developments in family law and juvenile justice

National Law University, Odisha (NLUO) through its flagship outreach programme, Project Kutumb has launched a double credit course titled 'Contemporary Developments in Family Law and Juvenile Justice' scheduled to be held from February 15 to March 15, 2026.

The course seeks to bridge theoretical perspectives with contemporary realities, analysing legislative amendments, landmark judgments, and policy measures that continue to redefine the framework of Indian family law and juvenile justice.

By the end of the course, participants will have developed a nuanced appreciation of how Indian family law is adapting to modern social realities while balancing constitutional values, individual rights, and societal welfare.

This course is ideal for law students, researchers, academicians and practitioners seeking to deepen their understanding of family law and juvenile justice in the contemporary context and to engage meaningfully with ongoing legal and social transformations.
