SGJI Summer Internship Application
The Sudreau Global Justice Institute invites law students to apply to our Summer Internship Program. Placement opportunities include the Supreme Court of Uganda, the Human Trafficking Institute in Uganda, the Supreme Court of Ghana/Ghana Legal Aid, and the Supreme Court of Rwanda.

Students who participate in our program also have the unique opportunity to participate in our annual summer "Prison Project" where we partner with the Ugandan Judiciary to host a week-long plea bargaining session. During this week, students will directly serve clients in a Ugandan prison on pre-trial detention and seek resolution of their cases.

APPLICATIONS ARE DUE OCTOBER 25, 2024.

If you have any questions, please contact seth.bamburg@pepperdine.edu.
