JD student Anna Pippus wins Helton Fellowship to pursue international project

For the fourth year in a row, a University of Toronto JD student is among the eleven winners of the prestigious Arthur C. Helton Fellowship for projects in international law, from the American Society of International Law.

Anna Pippus' project entails working with the Access to Justice program of Global Alliance Against Trafficking in Women in Thailand. She will provide legal information in accessible language to women who have experienced relocation abuse.

Selected from more than 50 applicants from Africa, Asia, Europe and Eurasia, Oceania, and North and South America, Helton fellows receive microgrants of $2,000 to pursue fieldwork in or research on issues involving international law, human rights, humanitarian affairs, and related areas.
