Center for Reproductive Rights Launches U.S. Law School Initiative and Selects First Fellow
MAY 28, 2008
NEW YORK -- The Center for Reproductive Rights today announced a joint fellowship program with Columbia Law School for outstanding law school graduates pursuing legal academic careers in reproductive health and human rights. This program is the first in the Center's newly launched initiative to promote legal scholarship and teaching on reproductive rights as human rights in the U.S.
"We have set an ambitious long-term goal -- to shape the next generation of legal thinking about reproductive health and human rights," said Nancy Northup, president of the Center for Reproductive Rights. "Around the world, key regional human rights courts and United Nations bodies are increasingly recognizing reproductive autonomy and access to reproductive health care as basic human rights. The Law School Initiative is a forward-thinking strategy that seeks to establish the study of reproductive health and human rights as an academic field in the U.S."
