| Description: | |||||||
| The Human Rights and International Law clinic provides students with the opportunity to do real world legal work affecting the development of human rights and international law. The clinic will meet as a group with the instructor(s) to learn about human rights and international law advocacy and advising, and concomitant research and writing skills. In teams of two or more, students will be assigned to a specific advocacy or advisory project, which might be, for example, the preparation of an amicus brief for a domestic or international litigation or an advisory memorandum for a domestic governmental, nongovernmental, or international governmental agency or institution. As a prerequisite to enrollment in this limited enrollment clinic, a student must have completed either International Human Rights Law or International Law, or, in exceptional circumstances, at the discretion of the instructor(s), have completed another course or activity that would provide a suitable background. | |||||||
