The Sri Lanka Law College has launched its new website https://www.sllc.ac.lk/home developed with the support of the European Union-funded ‘Support to Justice Reform (JURE)’ project, to enhance legal education.
This project is jointly implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and UNICEF in Sri Lanka and facilitated by the Ministry of Justice.

This initiative is part of the broader digitalisation action plan led by the Ministry of Justice within its reform mechanisms. In addition to supporting the website, the EU-funded JURE project will continue to support Law College in realising catalytic reforms in the justice education sector in Sri Lanka.

The new website was launched on Monday at the Law College Auditorium, with the participation of Chief Justice, Jayantha Jayasuriya, PC; Secretary, Ministry of Justice Nihal Ranasinghe, Principal of Sri Lanka Law College, Dr Athula Pathinayake; Deputy Head of Cooperation, Delegation of the European Union to Sri Lanka, Edoardo Spacca; and Officer-In-Charge, UNDP in Sri Lanka, Malin Herwig.

Issuing a statement, UNDP Sri Lanka said the newly launched website marks the beginning of many user-friendly digital learning tools to be introduced for students, faculty, and legal professionals. The website provides access to academic resources, and up-to-date administrative matters, and engages students in interactive learning to enhance the efficiency and accessibility to legal education. The future phases of the website under the JURE project will include the integration of a Student Management System as well as a Learning Management System (LMS).
