“Working at the Public International Law & Policy Group (PILPG) this summer has been a blast. PILPG is a unique global law firm that provides legal and policy advice to post-conflict states and governments. We assist our clients with peace negotiations, war crime prosecutions, and constitution drafting. I was honored to prepare memoranda and other legal documents for our South Sudan clients as they prepared to declare independence and the Republic of South Sudan became the world’s newest state on July 9, 2011.”
