The ASEM Business Law Clinic represents the culmination of a project aimed at strengthening practical experiences within university legal clinics. This initiative was developed as part of a broader program, the Criminal Justice Reform and Corruption Combat Program, implemented by ABA ROLI with financial support from the U.S. Department of State.
Founded following the approval of an ambitious project proposed by a group of academic staff from ASEM's Faculty of General Economics and Law in September 2022, the clinic was officially recognized and registered as an NGO in June 2023. The clinic operates under the auspices of the Academy of Economic Studies of Moldova, benefiting from logistical support provided by the university administration.
