Women in Law Program Website Launch

The Women in Law Program (WILpower) at the Academy for Educational Development (AED), funded by the U.S. Department of State Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI) is proud to launch the following web site for women in law: www.womeninlaw.net.
 
The WILpower program is reaching out to a broad network of young Arab female legal practitioners and law students in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). WILpower hopes to attract and engage individual female legal practitioners across the MENA region in its online activities: webinars on critical legal issues relevant to the region; discussion forums in which practical skills, resources and knowledge sharing about the law, leadership and entrepreneurship are exchanged; and networking opportunities to support ongoing professional and personal development. In addition, WILpower hopes to scale up its activities in other legal communities in the near future.
 
If you are an Arab female legal practitioner or law student interested in joining the WILpower online discussion forum, please email WILpower via the website link above.
 
If you are an expert practitioner and would like to participate as a guest speaker for WILpower's webinar series which discuss commercial law, family law, criminal law, international law, human rights, gender, juvenile justice, leadership, and business or entrepreneurial issues, WILpower would love to hear from you and add you to its online lecture series schedule.
