Law and Human Rights

With us, you can take your career development to an international stage. Our global internships help you:
Get unparalleled insight into legal practices, human rights issues, and social challenges in low-income countries overseas
Learn directly from an international network of experienced lawyers and human rights professionals
Add practical work experience rooted in real, ongoing cases to your resume
Decide if pursuing law or human rights is the right career path for you (incredibly valuable for pre-law students!)
In North America, we often take our human rights and access to legal advice for granted. But there are people around the world whose voices aren’t heard and whose causes aren’t championed. We connect interns like you with organizations in developing countries who work tirelessly to change this.
Our programs are flexible, safe, and hassle-free. Furthermore, placements can be adjusted to your level of experience, so they can be tailored for undergraduates (pre-law), law students, graduates, and even professionals.
