Regional Teaching Research and Advocacy Fellowships

To encourage the full integration of gender into the mainstream of legal education and legal theory in Latin America, the Transforming Women's Legal Status Project awarded six one-year teaching fellowships to qualified Latin American legal scholars and women's rights advocates to teach at law schools in Latin America. The Regional Fellows either taught specialized courses on gender and the law, or taught more traditional law school courses from a gender perspective. The Fellowships were flexible so that each Fellow could tailor the Fellowship to fit her own expertise as well as institutional opportunities. The Fellows also worked with faculty members at each institution to discuss issues of gender and the law and opportunities for incorporating gender into legal education across the curriculum. The Regional Fellows taught at law schools in:
