About the program
The International Human Rights Internship Program selects law
students for internships with NGOs and tribunals for a period of 12
weeks. Partner organizations provide students with practical work
experience in human rights investigation, monitoring, and
reporting. The internships also provide exposure to the operation
and implementation of international legal human rights instruments
and norms.
The Internship Program provides students with an opportunity to
apply their legal education in a concrete setting and further
develop a demonstrated interest and commitment to the defence of
human rights.
