Canadian Bar Association Young Lawyers International Program

The CBA administers a Young Lawyers International Program, which is funded by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) as part of the Government of Canada's Youth Employment Strategy (YES). Through this program, young lawyers are placed in seven and a half-month internships (they are overseas for between six and a half to seven months) to work with human rights legal organizations on issues such as women's rights, labour rights, constitutional rights, children's rights and indigenous people's rights, in Latin America and the Caribbean, Southern and Central Africa and South East Asia.
