The amount spent on bursaries for 2021 amounts to N$228,000.00.
It would not have been possible for the LSN to award these bursaries if not for the continued financial contributions of the Legal Practitioners’ Fidelity Fund (LPFF) and the Namibian Legal Practitioners’ Trust (NLPT).
The LPFF contributed 2/3rd of the bursary funds in the amount of N$152,000.00 and the NLPT contributed 1/3rd of the bursary funds in the amount of N$76,000.00.
We thank the NLPT and the LPFF for their continued commitment in investing in the future of our legal profession.
