Through careful legal research, memorandum drafting, and comprehensive analysis, the International Human Rights Workshop is dedicated to working alongside international courts and organizations to protect and promote human rights around the globe.
Students will work in a group of 3-4 to conduct legal research and draft memoranda on topics related to international human rights law in support of projects undertaken by Human Rights Center attorneys. The geopolitical environment can vary and more details on projects will be available as the Fall approaches.
Supervision: Students will receive training from and provide pro bono legal services under the supervision of consulting attorneys at Human Rights Center.
Time Commitment: 3-4 hours every week, including weekly meetings and any necessary training. No work will be assigned during reading weeks.
