Overview
The Law Development Centre is the only institution in the whole of Uganda that offers the bar course leading to the award of the postgraduate Diploma in Legal Practice (Dip.Leg.Pract). It was established in 1970 by the Law Development Centre Act, as a government-owned institution of higher learning responsible for "research, law reform, publications, law reporting and community legal services". LDC is managed by the Management Committee which is responsible for policy formulation. The policies formulated by the Management Committee are implemented by the Director through various institutional departments. The center is located on Makerere Hill, along Makerere Road, just outside the southern perimeter of the main campus of Makerere University. This location is less than 1 kilometre (0.62 mi), south of the Faculty of Law at Makerere University and approximately 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi), by road, north of Kampala's central business district.
