11 września 2013PILnet’s 7th Annual EUROPEAN PRO BONO FORUM
24–25 October 2013 in Warsaw, Poland
Welcome Reception 23 October
Early Bird Registration Closes 24 September!
The deadline for discounted registration for the 2013 European Pro Bono Forum —to take place on 24-25 October, in Warsaw, Poland—is nearly here! The Forum, currently in its seventh year, has played a major role in building support for pro bono across the continent and around the globe. By bringing together a growing community that recognizes the urgency of pro bono—leading figures from law firms, corporations, bar organizations, NGOs, and law schools—the event offers a vital setting where participants can explore how they can most effectively collaborate to address critical issues of social justice. Through interactive workshops, engaging social events, and structured networking opportunities, attendees gain insight into the pro bono community and forge alliances that can help deliver justice and protect rights around the world.
Join human rights and legal leaders this October to explore today’s pro bono landscape. Polish Host Committee co-chairs Andrzej Zwara, President of the Supreme Council of the Polish Bar Association and Maciej Bobrowicz, President of the National Council of Legal Advisers, look forward to welcoming you to the premier global marketplace for pro bono.
Exchange know-how at any one of over 20 different workshops and discussions. What kind of impact can pro bono have on women’s rights? How are lawyers in Russia and Ukraine supporting human rights work? What are bar associations doing—and doing right—to set the standard for local pro bono?
Learn how to get the most out of your pro bono programs and what’s on the horizon through the Pro Bono Lab. The Lab will introduce ways in which existing programs can boost their impact, whether through novel collaborations or by developing new approaches to expand their reach.
Earn training points! The Polish Bar Association has agreed to award 12 training points for participation in the 2013 European Pro Bono Forum.
