Haiti Legal Advocacy Project Kick-Off Meeting

October 11, 2012 • 12:15 PM • Law School 4045

We are an advocacy and interest group that focuses on legal, relief, and development issues in Haiti. This past spring we traveled to Port au Prince to film a short advocacy piece for the Institute for Justice and Democracy in Haiti on the forced evictions of internally displaced persons from camps. Our long term goal is to partner with public interest and pro bono lawyers in Haiti and abroad to to apply our legal skills to ongoing legal efforts in Haiti, and work to improve Haitians' access to their rights and legal system. Come join us for lunch and learn more about HLAP and how to apply for a board position! For more information please contact Rachael Smithson at rachel.smithson@duke.edu.
