About IDIA
Increasing Diversity by Increasing Access to Legal Education (IDIA) started out as a student-run movement in 2010 from West Bengal National University of Juridical Sciences. Founded by Prof. (Dr.) Shamnad Basheer, the movement seeks to empower underprivileged students and help them transform into leading lawyers and community advocates by giving them access to quality legal education.
As a step towards its objectives, IDIA – Kerala Chapter wishes to provide a platform for the voices of the people to be heard. They intend to provide an opportunity for interested students to showcase their legal articulation proficiency and test the legal acumen of the budding minds.
