A Joint Project of Fordham Law
School and the Facultad de Derecho
de la Universidad de Palermo in Buenos
Aires Examines Models for Popular
Rights Education
August 2004
In 2003-2004, working with the
Facultad de Derecho de la Universidad
de Palermo in Buenos Aires, Argentina,
the Vance Center co-established a
program between Fordham University
School of Law in New York and the
Asociación Civil por la Igualdad y la
Justicia (ACIJ), a social justice
organization in Buenos Aires, to
develop a technical assistance paper
on U.S. and international models for popular
rights education and "legal literacy"
programs.
This August, one of the Fordham student
researchers traveled to Buenos Aires
to assist ACIJ on site with the project.
The paper will assist ACIJ in designing
a course that will use popular education
methods to teach community members
about their rights and encourage them
to become involved in ACIJ's work.
