Abstract
Abstract This article examines the problems that African law schools face in responding to the internationalisation of legal education in the context of globalisation. Specifically, African law schools lack the resources that are necessary to implement necessary changes in their curricula to meet the needs of a globalised legal practice. African law schools also have to deal with the problem of retaining highly trained law teachers. The article considers these challenges and examines ways of overcoming them, and the contribution that the Commonwealth Legal Education Association can make.
