My 5 weeks in PIAC has affirmed my conviction my interest in public interest law and advocacy. The work in PIAC gave me an opportunity to put to use the skills I learnt in law school, and particularly to ends which I felt deeply motivated to work towards. More than that, the people I met in PIAC are incredible mentors who supported me in my time there and helped me build confidence in my capabilities and my career goals.

Overall, interning at PIAC was a unique and valuable experience. The work being done by the organisation is extremely important - addressing some of the most vital overriding issues facing people in our society. It was a great feeling to be able to contribute to this work.

I had the opportunity to experience first-hand how solicitors can use the law, policy, and advocacy to effect real change for disadvantaged and vulnerable members of the community. Working alongside such a compassionate team of solicitors has been nothing short of inspiring.
