F E A T U R E L A W S O C I E T Y N T North Australian Aboriginal Justice Agency, Maurice Blackburn Lawyers, Bowden McCormack Lawyers + Advisors, Clayton Utz, Halfpennys Lawyers, The Northern Territory Legal Aid Commission, Ward Keller; and Hunt & Hunt Lawyers. Inaugural Mentoring Workshop: 29 April 2017 The Bilata Legal Pathways Program started as an idea to put in place a mentoring program between senior members of the legal profession and ATSI students studying law at Charles Darwin University (CDU). The program expanded beyond this initial idea to provide a holistic program focusing on young ATSI students in high school, university law students and other adults interested in studying law. The mentoring component commenced from April 2017 where mentors and mentees gathered on a Saturday morning to workshop what makes a good mentor relationship in a context specific to the NT. The mentor component will continue to be improved with new mentoring possibilities. Law Day Dash: 26 May 2017 The Bilata Legal Pathways Program hosted the Law Day Dash where youth participants from high schools and colleges across the greater Darwin area had the opportunity to visit partnering law firms, hear from interesting guest speakers and take part in fun activities. A big thank you to Clayton Utz, Maurice Blackburn Lawyers, Bowden McCormack Lawyers + Advisors, Ward Keller, the Northern Territory Legal Aid Commission and Halfpennys Lawyers for having us.
