The Social Value of Legal Clinics

Congress Centre, conference hall B3

International Youth Legal Forum

Broadcast

The agenda focuses primarily on the work of legal clinics as independent entities providing free legal aid in present-day conditions. The section will examine problems related to interaction between legal clinics, government agencies, and community organizations. There is a need for a discussion of the Three University Missions as they pertain to legal clinics, hence the title of the Forum section. Legal clinics play a significant role in the interaction that takes place between the university and society. At the same time, a discussion also needs to take place around standardizing and evaluating the quality and effectiveness of the socially significant legal assistance provided by legal clinics.
