ABOUT US
The Alternative Dispute Resolution Society (UNILAG) was established on the 20th of June, 2013 with the primary aim of raising ADR awareness in the campus environment, amongst students and the surrounding environments.
The University is home to the next generation of Lawyers and it is important that they too are aware of ADR and all it has to offer. The University of Lagos, popularly referred to as the University of First Choice has taken the bold step to establish the first student body with the primary objective of promoting ADR and its practice in Nigeria.
