This is an excellent opportunity for 1Ls, LLMs, and other students at Columbia to learn more about careers in international law and to network with prominent practitioners in the field. This event is dedicated to public interest careers at international organizations, governments, NGOs, and other public interest-oriented organizations.
The initial panel will feature the following guest speakers:
Ursula Wynhoven, International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Representative to the United Nations (UN)
