Migrant Legal Clinic Intern
-
Apr 2022 - Oct 2022
The Migrant Legal Clinic provides free legal services to migrants. I interviewed clients with a range of legal matters and discussed these with a lawyer. Using MBIE employment module content I collaboratively developed an interactive webinar for migrant employers highlighting their obligations as an employer. These workshops were funded by MBIE as a result of a submission I collaboratively developed and submitted through the Migrant Exploitation and Modern Slavery Bill. I prepared a research report on the adequacy of legal aid for small business owners in NZ and assisted with the recruitment of new interns. Show less
