SPILKA, a community deeply committed to Ukraine's postwar recovery and the rule of law, has partnered with the University of Law Bloomsbury to support Ukrainian lawyers displaced in the UK due to the conflict in their home country.
As part of this collaboration, the University of Law Bloomsbury hosted a series of talks by their lecturers, covering a wide range of practical topics. These talks took place in either the lecture theatre (RG05) or SG01, depending on the level of interactivity expected.
This program was specifically designed for Ukrainian legal professionals who had been displaced to the UK due to the ongoing conflict in their home country. It was an ideal fit for those who sought to enhance their knowledge across a variety of legal topics, network with UK-based law firms and organizations, and contribute to the postwar recovery of Ukraine. Whether they are seasoned lawyers or law students, this program offered valuable insights and opportunities to further their careers and make a difference.
