With established legal and foreign relations practitioners as keynote speakers, the workshop effectively provided an opportunity for students to engage with those elder professionals who have effectively forged successful careers both internationally and nationally within different or unusual areas of Global Justice, Law and Diplomacy, that young people might not have previously considered.<\/p>\n

This workshop launches the initial phase of The Sir Learie Constantine Educational Series in Global Justice, Law & Diplomacy in Trinidad. The flagship series is being pioneered by Mr. Brathwaite to not only raise awareness of who Sir Learie (a Barrister) was as the GoRTT\u2019s first High Commissioner to the UK, but also the historical significance of what he did for human rights within the context of international law and diplomacy.<\/p>\n
