"The simple fact that the legal world is engaging with us in the community other than in litigation against us is a success already and is so encouraging. I know now that we are not imagining things and there is a logical explanation for what we are facing. Knowledge and education and fraternity sets us free to do our best and play our part."

"Working with Francesca Albanese [United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian Territory occupied since 1967], her team, and my clinic colleagues gave me a first hand experience of what it truly means to stand alongside affected communities, to fight for what is right even when success is not immediate or guaranteed. Although the challenges were many, this experience reaffirmed my commitment to human rights advocacy and helped me develop the resilience, skills, and solidarity that will continue to guide my future work."

"Another feature I believe made this course extraordinary was how it inspired me and my classmates. When talking to my family and friends back home, they always ask for updates about the clinic, I have gone on countless rants about my topic, I’ve cried over it, and above all it reminded me why I chose this field and school in the first place."

"Speaking only for myself, I was driven away from law by the very rigid, scholastic and disillusioned approach I endured studying in France previously, so the discovery of rebellious lawyering was an eye-opener that gave me a true sense of coming-together - it reconciled my firmly held beliefs in advocacy and social justice with the possibility to wield law as a powerful tool to advance them."
