As Faculty Director of the International Development Law Center, I am pleased to continue sharing my passion for international development work with UC Law SF

The Center had a busy first year, welcoming law faculty and lawyers from Ghana and Kosovo to San Francisco under two new grants, and deploying several of our faculty and other experts to our partner law schools: the University of Professional Studies, Accra, in Ghana, and the University of Prishtina, in Kosovo. We also hosted a training-of-trainers symposium for representatives of these schools as well as from our partner law school in Haiti.

Future goals for the Center include involving more UC Law SF students, faculty, and alumni in international projects, exposing law students to the world of international grants, and, most importantly, inspiring students and alumni to pursue careers in international development.

I have been gratified to see the interest on the part of our students, faculty, and alumni and to feel the support of the law school. I look forward to another strong year ahead

Sincerely,

JESSICA VAPNEK FACULTY DIRECTOR
