The East Africa Law Society invites visionary legal minds, bold reformers, and thought leaders from across the region and beyond to take the stage at the 31st Annual EALS Conference and General Meeting, set to take place in Zanzibar – Tanzania, an archipelago off the coast of East Africa. The theme for this year’s conference is “At a Defining Moment: Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Legal Practice in East Africa.”
We are looking for speakers who can ignite conversations, challenge orthodoxy, and offer forward-thinking insights on the issues shaping the legal profession and governance across East Africa. Whether your expertise lies in technology and the law, climate justice, economic transformation, constitutional resilience, or access to justice, we invite you to be part of the conversation.
If you would like to be considered, please submit:
- A 400-word abstract summarizing your proposed presentation or area of expertise
- A brief 100-word professional biography.
Submissions must be received by 16th October 2026 and sent to 2026conference@ealawsociety.org.
PLEASE NOTE:
Speaking at the EALS Annual Conference is a voluntary opportunity. EALS does not offer financial remuneration, travel, or accommodation support.
