Georgetown University Law Center Women’s Law and Public Policy Fellowship Program

By on August 8th, 2013

The Women’s Law and Public Policy Fellowship Program (WLPPFP) at the Georgetown University Law Center offers one year Fellowships for public interest lawyers from the United States who are committed to advancing women’s rights throughout their careers. Although each Fellowship experience is unique, each fellow works to advance women’s rights at a D.C.-based organization, learn together about substantive women’s rights issues, explore a multitude of career paths through which they can advocate for women’s equality and develop their legal and interpersonal skills through seminars, trainings, networking events and other Fellowship activities.
