Kaupapa
Our kaupapa (purpose and guiding principle) is:
“To empower young New Zealanders to use their legal skills in the public interest”
We seek to build and strengthen the public interest law community in New Zealand, by:
- Motivating young lawyers to work in public interest law
- Showcasing public interest pathways
- Uniting like-minded individuals committed to public interest law
- Sparking further debate about the role of lawyers in our society.
Our vision is of a vibrant, principled, and progressive legal community in Aotearoa that is committed to addressing unmet legal needs and using law as a tool to make a difference.
