Justice for All - The Part That Pro Bono Plays
Organised by the Bar Pro Bono Unit and sponsored by the Chancery Bar Association
In keeping with the overall Conference theme, this year the emphasis is on the part that the pro bono area of your practice can play towards access to justice - for all. We will look at the skills, knowledge and professional standards demanded for this work across England and Wales and internationally. As before, audience participation in the discussion will be encouraged. There will also be an update on National Pro Bono Week 2009.
