This collaboration built capacity within Ethiopia’s legal sector. The University of Alabama (UA) assisted the recently established Mekelle University Law Faculty (MULF) to deliver degree, diploma, and continuing education programs and to provide appropriate research and service to the surrounding community. Partners addressed the lack of teaching materials at Mekelle by introducing Westlaw and LexisNexis and by making UA’s resources available through a connection to the UA library. A MULF law librarian participated in a two-month internship at the UA law library. Three MULF faculty members completed a master of law program at UA, and one of them returned to UA for three months to work on class materials in his area of law. Visiting UA faculty lectured on administrative and environmental law, constitutional law/federalism, law and anthropology, and family law. The vice minister of education and the presidents and provosts of Ethiopian universities with new faculties of law requested UA broaden the linkage to incorporate all faculties of law in Ethiopia.
