Will joined FIELD in September 2008 to gain experience in international environmental law, and to gain a greater understanding of working in an NGO environment.
"FIELD has been an incredible experience for me. Not only have I worked on some extremely interesting pieces of work, but have gained invaluable experience at what it is like to work in an NGO environment and have learnt many skills and knowledge that I can take away with me. The experience has been instrumental in helping me shape my future career path, and giving me insight into the realities of international law and policy. I have met extremely interesting people and been able to work on subjects that I find both interesting and crucial. The experience has taught me about the invaluable contribution that organisations such as FIELD make to developing countries and in the formulation of equitable international law, and I am eternally grateful for the opportunities and exposure that have been given to me on the internship."
Will has a LLM in Environmental Law from Nottingham University, and since has been working for a government agency looking at social inclusion and justice. He has worked in managing the provision of direct services, including telephone support and legal publications, and organisational change. Prior to his LLM, Will graduated with a LLB in Law from the University of Bristol. He hopes to continue working in international environmental law and policy, and to build upon his experiences at FIELD.
