University of Peshawar Law College

The Law College, University of Peshawar was established in 1950 and elevated to a Faculty in 1992. However, the existing faculties of the university were re-structured and Law College was placed under the Faculty of Social Sciences.

The College has an academic link with the University of Oslo, Norway, and has also signed an MOU with the IUCN Pakistan, under which it will have institutional co-operation with the latter in the area of Environmental Law.

The Human Rights Studies Centre is also part of the college and was established in March 2000 under the Government of Pakistan Human Rights and Mass Awareness and Education Programme, jointly funded by the NORAD and the Swiss Development Corporation. Its main objective is to develop curriculum for Human Rights as a subject at the Master's level and to co-ordinate the activities/research regarding Human Rights at the National and Provincial level. It also aims at acting as a base for institutional co-operation between Human Rights Agencies at National and International level.
