Dear BABSEA CLE Friends and Supporters,

As we have entered into July we see that the second quarter of 2013 has lived up to the bright start we showcased in the last newsletter. Our team, interns, volunteers and partners have been hard at work on so many different projects and events, all focusing on improving legal education and access to justice in the region and internationally. This newsletter showcases just a few of these many activities.

Some highlights of the newsletter are the article on Myanmar joining the CLE network; the many reflections on incoming and outgoing exchanges, such as My Visiting Placement to the University of New Castle Legal Centre and Irish Rule of Law International BABSEA CLE Trip; and the stories from our team members  and volunteers, such as the article on the BABSEA CLE Library and the description of the Asia Youth Forum in Kyrgyzstan. We believe that all the articles are worth a read as they help to paint a picture of the ever growing BABSEA CLE family.

We’d like to send a huge thank you to all our team members, volunteers, interns, partners, supporters and friends who have helped us to achieve so much. It is clear from these articles how important and meaningful your work and support is. 

We hope you enjoy this newsletter and we welcome your feedback on the newsletter and our work.
