WELCOME TO
THE LORDS INTERNATIONAL - (Magazine of Law & Law Fields)
“The Lords International” Magazine of the law & Law field, is the first magazine in Pakistan, Which is well recognized and well appreciated as well within the legal fraternity. The intent behind this publication is to create the magazine about the law & legal fields, but with a difference. Instead of being of interest only to th
e lawyers and others involved in the legal profession, the aim is to create something that could be read, understood and even enjoyed by those also who do not have formal knowledge of law. When citizens, particularly marginalized or underprivileged groups, know what the law has to offer them, they can recognize and challenge injustices much more forcefully. So, the first step towards that knowledge of law, which can transform people's lives, is legal literacy. The Lords International (Magazine of Law & Law Fields) firmly believes that it is essential to use this knowledge as a tool for vulnerable groups to be able to understand and critique the law, to familiarize themselves with the scope of their rights under the law, and eventually to assert their rights as a means to take action and bring in change. The aim is to educate the maximum number of people and to help capacity building from within communities, so that they are in a position to challenge violations of law and human rights. Even those who are literate, they also seem helpless and confused when there is a violation or infringement of a right enforceable in law is reported. The Lords International is a Magazine, which is created to work for public awareness; spreading Legal Literacy for social empowerment, capacity building and promotion of rule of law.
