International Law Mentoring Program for Women

American Society of International Law (ASIL)

The American Society of International Law invites applications for both mentors and mentees for the ASIL Women in International Law Mentoring Program. The deadline is July 1, 2016.

The Women in International Law Mentoring Program is the first of its kind in international law and is designed to foster the next generation of female international lawyers. The program connects experienced female international law professionals with female law students and new attorneys interested in professional development in the field of international law. Mentoring takes place locally, in a group setting, with a maximum of four mentees for every mentor. Mentors and mentees meet in person every other month during the course of an academic year to discuss topics and engage in activities designed to help junior women enter and be successful in the field of international law. Upon finishing the requirements of the one-year program, all participants receive a certificate of completion.
