Working in the Public Interest Law Conference

Authors

The WIPI Conference was held April 7-8, 2006 at the University of Georgia School of Law.

Abstract

Entirely student organized, WIPI seeks to bring together eminent practitioners in their respective fields, students, and faculty to discuss practical approaches to lawyering which can best serve the poor. Practical methods of challenging poverty are often not covered in traditional law school courses. This conference seeks to remedy that and provide dynamic, creative ways to combat poverty through the vehicle of the law.
