Description

The Human Rights Internship Program offers postgraduate students the opportunity to undertake advocacy, research or writing in collaboration with a partner organisation with a focus on the protection and promotion of human rights and justice initiatives . Under the supervision of a member of the partner organisation and the Law Faculty, students will gain valuable experience in research, analysis, writing and advocacy on aspects of law, policy and practice relating to human rights and justice. Project topics must be related to human rights and justice law and policy and are to be negotiated between individual interns, partner organisations and the academic supervisor at UNSW Law School. Interns are required to undertake the equivalent of one full day each week of work at their partner organisation during session and to complete their project in close consultation with their partner organisation. At the end of the session, students will present a short presentation on the project which has been the subject of their internship.
