SEASON 4, Episode 1 - Ukraine Students and the Vis

SEASON 4 PREMIER 

 

As the world began to visualize a world where Covid-19 may fade into the rear view, a new global disaster looemd, somehow even more unimaginable.  In February 2022, Russia declared war on Ukraine and invaded its neighbor, killing thousands, devastating countless lives and turning global economies and politics upside down.

In the wake of this military aggression, and bolstered by grit and courage, many Ukrainians found ways to continue on with their lives, in particular law students who had been preparing for the Vis international arbitration moot who now had a wholly new set of challenges to contend with...and yet, they did.  

In this week's episode, you'll hear from two students and their coaches about what their lives have been like, since the invasion, during the moot and what comes next.
