“My experience thus far at the International Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia has been great! The Tribunal celebrated its 20th anniversary during the first week of my internship with a visit from King Willem-Alexander and a huge party – not a bad way to start off the internship. I’m also happy that I’ve been assigned to a high profile case, the Radovan Karadzic case. Most of my work involves cross-examination preparation for defense witnesses. I’ve also been helping out with a project that evaluates how courts in Bosnia-Herzegovina have been applying ICTY case law to sexual violence charges stemming from the war. It’s been truly fascinating learning about the nitty gritty details of the Yugoslav conflict.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0Plus, I’ve loved the opportunity to work in such a diverse environment. My officemates are from all over the world, and I learn a lot from them too. They also make for good company on my weekend trips to Bruges, Brussels, Berlin and Prague.”<\/p>\n
