Women in African Power Survey: Vance International Justice Training Opportunity

The Cyrus R. Vance Center for International Justice is partnering with Women in African Power (WiAP) to offer trainings taught by highly qualified African energy lawyers who took part in the Vance Fellows Program.

The Vance Fellows Program brought lawyers from Nigeria, Ethiopia, and Kenya to US law firms for one year to develop their skills executing energy sector transactions. Following their Fellowship, The Legal Fellows are now holding a series of workshops in their respective countries for government lawyers on topics relating to the energy sector. The Legal Fellows would like to make these available to WiAP members; adapting the content in line with WiAP members' areas of interest.
