A delegation from the International Forum for Islamic Humanitarian Law, led by Professor Fawzi Oussedik, President of the Forum for Islamic International Humanitarian Law (OIC), and Dr. Zahra Adnan, paid a visit to the Islamic University in Uganda (IUIU) to strengthen ties and explore new areas of collaboration.
The delegation, which has supported IUIU on several occasions, expressed its admiration for the university’s growth and its contribution not only to Uganda but to the wider Muslim Ummah. “This university is not only of value to Uganda, but to the entire Islamic community,” Professor Oussedik noted, praising the institution’s progress, including the development of new faculties.
Dr. Zahra Adnan, the executive secretary of the International Forum for Islamic Humanitarian Law at the OIC, highlighted the team’s commitment to nurturing students who combine strong Islamic values with academic excellence. “We are here to support, learn, and teach. We aim to help develop future leaders with Islamic manners and successful academic information to lead this country,” she said.
At the Faculty of Law, discussions centered on promoting moot court competitions, scholarships, and training in International Humanitarian Law, with a focus on both Arabic and French-speaking contexts. The team also engaged the Faculty of Islamic Studies and Arabic Language (FISAL), exploring opportunities to expand academic and cultural exchange.
Dr. Adeyemo Wale Abdul Latif, Dean of the Faculty of Law, welcomed the partnership, emphasizing its value in enriching students’ academic experiences and promoting the culture of Islam. “We are very grateful for their readiness to assist our students and lecturers in areas of growth that benefit not only IUIU but the entire Ummah,” he remarked.
