James Lomonosoff
This summer, I will be interning with the International Bridges to Justice (IBJ) office in Geneva, Switzerland. IBJ is a non-governmental organization devoted to the protection of basic legal rights for individuals in developing nations, specifically the rights to competent legal representation, a fair trial, and protection from cruel and unusual punishment. To achieve these goals, IBJ provides training and support to legal aid organizations, at the same time promoting the establishment of just and effective criminal law systems. During my internship, I will write grant proposals as well as contribute to the development of manuals to be used by lawyers in developing nations.
