Community & Pro Bono
The Clifford Chance global pro bono & community strategy focuses on contributing towards the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Guided by our theory of change, and in the spirit of SDG 17 – Partnership for the Goals – we work in long-term partnerships with some of the world’s leading NGOs and civil society organisations, and our clients, in order to maximise our impact. We harness the skills and expertise of our people to deliver positive and sustainable contributions towards the achievement of the SDGs.
This global virtual internship is a collaborative effort between Clifford Chance teams, notably our Warsaw office, and our pro bono client, Reprieve. In this internship, you will learn about the Centre for Sport and Human Rights and our Refugee Support Scheme, with a focus on how our skilled lawyers are able to provide critical assistance. This will give you key foundational knowledge of how our pro bono practice contributes towards the UN Sustainable development Goals and the kinds of matters we advise on.
"Making a pro bono contribution in the communities around the world where we do business is a core part of the life of Clifford Chance lawyers. I hope you enjoy getting a taste of this through the internship. The contents of the internship draw heavily on key elements in Clifford Chance's global pro bono practice and so offer a great opportunity to practice the sorts of skills that our lawyers use when supporting individuals who cannot afford to pay for legal services and advising leading NGOs around the world. The internship also offers real insights into how we do pro bono work and the very real differences that our work makes to our pro bono clients." Tom Dunn, Global Pro Bono and Community Director
