About the Faculty Development Program
In the 21st century, unprecedented technological advancements are reshaping nearly every aspect of life, including the way we work, communicate, and secure information. This evolution is profoundly impacting the labour dynamics and workplace structures, creating both unique challenges and opportunities in the legal field. The legal landscape of labour and employment issues faces new challenges due to technological advancements resulting in the rapid rise of digital platforms, remote work, expansion
of gig and freelance work, and the integration of artificial intelligence and automation in workplaces.

As industries shift towards digital transformation and technology continues to influence workplace dynamics, legal frameworks are struggling to keep up with the pace of change, necessitating a re-evaluation of how laws are applied and interpreted in relation to technology. Laws traditionally grounded in physical, manual, or straightforward fashion are now frequently outpaced by the complexity and speed of new technologies. In India, as elsewhere, this phenomenon calls for immediate and urgent academic and professional attention to ensure that laws remain relevant and capable of addressing modern realities, particularly in areas such as Employment and AI, data privacy, gig economy, and AI-driven workplace environments. This Faculty Development Program (FDP) aims to equip legal educators with a comprehensive understanding of these trends, enabling them to update their curricula and methodologies to reflect the changing legal environment and prepare students for the demands of tomorrow's legal landscape.
