    Increasing Diversity by Increasing Access (IDIA):

    Increasing Diversity by Increasing Access (IDIA), is a non-profit organisation that aims to empower underprivileged and marginalised children by giving them access to quality legal education, in a bid to enhance the diversity in law schools across India. To this end, IDIA sensitises students from across the country to Law as a career option, selects underprivileged and marginalised students with an aptitude for law, trains them, and provides scholarships to the students on gaining admission to law schools. Conceptualised in 2010 as the brainchild of late Prof. (Dr.) Shamnad Basheer, IDIA has since expanded to over 600 volunteers across 20 states, and the IDIA Delhi Chapter specifically has rapidly grown since 2011 and a robust set of approximately 75 to 100 volunteers at National Law University, Delhi prepares scholars for legal entrance examinations each year.
