Global Legal Action Network
Developing Clinical Legal Education: Joint initiative with ‘Global Legal Action Network’ involves students in international human rights actions.
In addition to its renowned academic programme the Irish Centre for Human Rights is working to expand the practical legal opportunities for its students. This summer term the Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) commenced a collaborative initiative recruiting a select number of the Centre’s LLM and PhD students to provide hands on support for its international legal actions. A total of six candidates were selected and brought into three separate projects covering war crimes in Yemen, migration rights and human rights in supply chains. The supervised placements are based in Galway and students link to other GLAN teams via regular video conferencing and on-line case management systems. Since its inception GLAN has successfully incorporated clinical legal education into its operations and developed a robust set of practice to ensure that students gain meaningful and rewarding experiences that boost the organisations capacity and further their litigation strategies. Further information on GLAN’s pioneering legal work is available at: www.glanlaw.org
