Seventeen Harvard Law School students have been awarded 2019\u00a0Chayes International Public Service Fellowships<\/a>\u00a0for work in 13 countries.<\/p>\n

The Chayes International Public Service Fellowships are dedicated to the memory of\u00a0Professor Abram Chayes \u201949<\/a>, who taught at Harvard Law School for more than 40 years. Professor Chayes was a leading authority on international law, and throughout his career, as a lawyer, arbitrator and legal advisor, he took on notable cases arising from military and paramilitary activities in Nicaragua, boundary disputes in Africa, and the genocide in Kosovo, among many others.<\/p>\n

Accordingly, these fellowships provide Harvard Law School students with the opportunity to spend eight weeks during the summer working with governmental or non-governmental organizations concerned with issues of an international scope or relevant to countries in transition.<\/p>\n
