THE FEMME LEX COHORT
ARE YOU READY TO CHANGE THE WORLD?
Could you imagine a life where you, your daughter, your mother, sister, or aunt never had the opportunity to realise their dreams? Can you imagine knowing that they possessed the intelligence to do so, but were only met with crushing obstacles? Sad and frustrating to think about, isn’t it? This is the reality for our young, aspiring mentees, and millions of disadvantaged girls across the world. Moreover, young women in small island developing states such as the Caribbean, and in developed countries such as America and Europe STILL face dire inequities to reach career, mentorship, and employment opportunities in the legal field.
