Russia’s war and human rights abuses in Ukraine spurred US clinicians to reach out to Ukrainian legal clinicians to offer their support. US and Ukrainian clinics collaborated on a series of workshops to equip the next generation of Ukrainian lawyers with soft skills they will use to fight human rights abuses, prosecute war crimes, rebuild their communities, represent clients, and care for themselves as they confront the traumas of war. This session will provide a general overview of Ukrainian legal clinics and how the clinics, clinicians, and law students are adjusting to the war. It will discuss the process of developing the workshop series, and the pedagogy used in the workshops. The presenters will reflect upon lessons learned from the US and Ukrainian perspectives, which may be applicable to other international collaborations in times of war or peace. The presenters will also discuss possible future collaborations to support the needs of Ukrainian legal clinics. Thanks to the AALS Section on Clinical Legal Education and the USAID Justice for All program for supporting the attendance of our Ukrainian colleagues
