CARL/L’ACAADR McGill is a student chapter of the Canadian Association of Refugee Lawyers, an organization founded in 2011 to promote just and consistent practices in the treatment of refugees in Canada.

 Avec plus de 300 avocats, juristes et étudiants en droit à travers le Canada, L’ACAADR fait la promotion des droits humains des réfugiés devant les tribunaux, des comités parlementaires, dans les médias et au sein de ses membres par l’entremise de conférences bi-annuelles.

 As the McGill student chapter, we have participated in this work by assisting refugee lawyers with their research, meeting with MPs to lobby for refugee law reform, and mobilizing the McGill community through letter-writing campaigns and fundraisers. We have also organized unique opportunities to shadow refugee lawyers, attend conferences, and participate in professional speed-meets.
