FREE LL.M. for Ukrainian lawyers

Ukraine is defending itself against an unprecedented military aggression by Russia.
In addition to the many thousands of civilians murdered, Ukraine has had over 5 million refugees forcibly displaced outside of Ukraine and another 8 million displaced within Ukraine. This includes many attorneys who have left Ukraine and are without employment or opportunity for professional development. Due to the war, most of the attorneys who have stayed in Ukraine have been unable to work either.
This is why The Center for American Studies (an American-led non-profit foundation headquartered in Poland) is raising funds to organize a 𝟭𝟬𝟬% 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗟𝗟.𝗠. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 𝗮𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝘁 𝗨𝗸𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗹𝗮𝘄𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀 who are interested to continue their professional development while the war continues in Ukraine ("Program").

Thanks to you, our LL.M. Program will be offered at no financial cost to the Ukrainian lawyers who are accepted into the Program.
Normally, American LL.M. programs cost from 50,000 to 70,000 USD. LL.M. degrees at such costs are completely inaccessible to Ukrainian lawyers - especially now, in the time of war and economic turbulence. Our LL.M. will be accessible to Ukrainian lawyers from all backgrounds and demographics, regardless of sex, gender and economic status.
Our Program will thus be the first 100% free LL.M. program in the history of American LL.M. programs.

Because attorneys are integral to the functioning and build-up of any democratic society governed by the rule of law, and Ukraine is no exception, the professional development of Ukrainian attorneys during the war will assist Ukraine tremendously in its post-war reconstruction efforts, fighting for post-war restitutions and indemnifications, and combating future potential corruption in the process of using financial aid by national and local state institutions in Ukraine now and for years to come. Moreover, a strong legal community of Ukraine will be conducive to Ukraine meeting all necessary criteria of being accepted as a member of the European Union.
ALL faculty teaching in the Program will be the best American US attorneys and law professors, graduates of leading American law schools (Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Yale, Columbia, etc.), many of which regularly teach for the Center (their bios may be found on www.cfasofficial.com).
