Section Description

The Advanced Just Transition Clinic is an opportunity for students to build upon the community and movement lawyering skills they learned in the Just Transition Clinic. Students in Advanced Clinic will continue their work on clinic projects and will take on additional leadership within their project teams. Advanced Clinic students will have the opportunity to contribute to additional clinic projects, to assist in developing a course of study based on that student’s learning goals, to undertake movement-building projects, and to contribute to the development of specific seminar sessions for the Just Transition Clinic.
