The Equal Jus project is a project funded by the European Union for the establishment of a European Network for the Legal Support of LGBT Rights. Its partners are the University of Udine, Lawyers for LGBT Rights, IMed (Italy), KPH (Poland), LGL (Lithuania), SOS Homophobie, RAVAD and HALDE (France).

Equal Jus is organizing a training event for European lawyers on LGBT rights and strategies in Florence on 7-10 October 2010. You are invited to read the call and the application package and eventually select and support the application of a lawyer or attorney with whom you work or you plan to work with. All details are in the application package available online.

Please, visit our website http://www.equal-jus.eu/?p=155 (currently under development) for information on the many Project activities. We would also be grateful if you could circulate the call among people potentially interested in the training. We expect to have a second round of selections for additional participants with deadline the end of August.
