Description:

On May 27-28, 2012, The Protection Project at The Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS), in cooperation with the Global Alliance for Justice Education (GAJE), will host a conference titled: “Middle East Regional Colloquium on Clinical Legal Education: Developing Clinical Programs and Expanding Access to Justice,” in Amman, Jordan.

The clinical movement in the Middle East has been slower to develop than in other regions of the world due to the rigidity of legal education, as well as political realities. However, interest has been rising in recent years, and a number of universities in the region now boast either fully developed or nascent clinical programs. The colloquium is aimed at generating interest in clinical legal education in the region and at building the capacity of faculties of law to establish and develop new, or expand and enhance existing clinical programs.

To event is not open to the public. For more information, please contact Ms. Anna Koppel at +1 202 663 5895.
