During and after the completion of their law studies, students are often faced with the difficult decision regarding the career to pursue in line with their qualification. It is with this in mind that we bring together legal professionals from different sectors of practice to provide practical guidance and information to students and graduates about the respective careers.

The primary objectives of the workshop are:
• To provide a platform for engagement and discussions between law students and professionals in the field of law.
• Facilitate networking and knowledge exchange among attendees.
• Ensure that the students have a broader understanding of the various career opportunities available to them.

This workshop has proven to be a significant platform for students who would like to broaden their knowledge on the career paths available to law graduates as they get to engage directly with professionals in the field. Law students and graduates from Unisa are therefore invited to attend this event and get first-hand practical information about being in the legal profession. Attendees also get the opportunity to canvass challenges they are facing in deciding which direction to take in their careers.

The Unisa Law Clinic is honoured to announce Judge Daniel Thulare as the keynote speaker for the 3rd Annual Law Career Guidance Workshop, taking place on 8 September 2026.

A proud Unisa graduate, Judge Thulare brings extensive judicial and professional experience to this important platform.

Prior to his appointment to the Western Cape Division of the High Court, he served in an acting capacity in both the Gauteng Division of the High Court and the Western Cape Division of the High Court.

Beyond the Bench, Judge Thulare is an accomplished author and respected public speaker, with a wealth of experience and insight into the South African legal profession. The workshop will provide an opportunity for law students and graduates to gain a deeper understanding of his professional journey, his contribution to the development of South African jurisprudence, and selected judgments associated with his judicial career.

⚖️🌍 | CONGRATULATIONS, ADV. KGAGUDI MOROTA

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Adv. Kgagudi Morota, Head of the Unisa Law Clinic, on receiving this prestigious international recognition.

This honour is a powerful acknowledgment not only of Adv. Morota’s leadership, but of a sustained commitment to access to justice, human dignity, equality, legal empowerment and transformative community service.

Since assuming office as Head of the Unisa Law Clinic in 2020, Adv. Morota embraced a bold vision of taking access to justice beyond geographical boundaries. Under his leadership, the Clinic expanded from a single branch at Unisa’s Pretoria Main Campus to additional branches in Polokwane, Middelburg and Parow, enabling thousands of indigent people to access quality legal services with dignity and hope.

It is therefore fitting that this recognition comes alongside his impactful keynote address at the Clevenard Open Project 2026, where he addressed:

“Access to Justice, Ethical Leadership, and Inclusive Development in a Changing World.”

His address offered a compelling reminder that the law must be more than an instrument for dispute resolution. It must serve as a foundation for protecting rights, advancing equality, strengthening institutions and enabling inclusive development.

One of the most powerful reflections from his keynote was:

“Other continents and countries have a plan for Africa. It is about time that Africa has a plan for herself.”

These words speak directly to the principles underlying his recognition, African agency, self-determination, accountable leadership and justice that is accessible to all.

What makes this achievement particularly meaningful is that the work was never undertaken in pursuit of awards or international recognition. It was driven by a moral obligation to restore dignity, advance equality and ensure that justice is not reserved for those who can afford it.

Congratulations, Adv. Morota. ⚖️🌍

This recognition is a testament to the impact of principled leadership and service grounded in humanity. May this achievement inspire continued excellence in advancing justice, empowering communities, mentoring future legal professionals and ensuring that the law remains an instrument of hope, dignity and social transformation for all.

A well-deserved honour for a remarkable contribution to justice and transformative legal education.

CLEVENARD OPEN PROJECT 2026 | ⚖️🌍

As part of the Clevenard Open Project 2026, Adv. Kgagudi Morota, Head of the Unisa Law Clinic, delivered an impactful keynote address on:

“Access to Justice, Ethical Leadership, and Inclusive Development in a Changing World.”

Grounded in the principles of constitutionalism, ethical governance, human rights and inclusive development, the address challenged us to reflect on the role of law and leadership in shaping a more just and equitable future for Africa.

A particularly powerful reflection from Adv. Morota’s keynote was:

“Other continents and countries have a plan for Africa. It is about time that Africa has a plan for herself.”

This powerful statement speaks to more than development, it speaks to agency, sovereignty and self-determination. Africa’s future must not merely be shaped by external interests or external agendas; it must be anchored in African priorities, informed by the rule of law, accountable leadership and meaningful access to justice.

The law has a critical role to play in this transformation: not merely as an instrument for resolving disputes, but as a foundation for protecting rights, advancing equality, strengthening institutions and enabling inclusive development.
