2021/2022
In collaboration with Family Frontiers, the UM Consti Team organised the second screening of "Saya Juga Anak Malaysia" on 13 May 2022, a short film about one mother's years-long struggle to pass on her Malaysian citizenship to her daughter. The aim of the screening and forum discussion was to shed light on the effects of gender-discriminatory citizenship laws on Malaysian women, their children and the family unit. We were truly honoured to have Emeritus Prof Datuk Dr Shad Saleem Faruqi, Ms Patricia Low and Ms Corina Robert Mangharam as our speakers for the forum discussion.
The UM Consti Team (UMCT) organised an infographic competition entitled "The Constitution & Us: Infographic Artistry for our Community!" From 5 -26 March 2022 as part of our Virtual Constitutional Carnival. The submissions were evaluated by our guest judge, Dr Hameedullah Asri, as well as the High Committee members of UMCT.
The UM Moot Club and the UM Consti Team successfully organised the Internal Malaya Constitutional Moot Competition (IMCMC) 2022 virtually from 8 to 10 April 2022 due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
The aim of the competition was to encourage Novice mooters to kickstart their mooting journey and to learn more about Malaysian Constitutional Law. The competition also served to provide a great platform for all participants to hone their advocacy skills and receive constructive feedback from our guest judges.
