This vital Law and Human Rights Program puts international volunteers and interns at the heart of Cambodia's fight for social justice. Love Volunteers partners with a Cambodian organization that supports NGOs specializing in critical areas of human rights, women's rights, public health, and community development. Participants provide support to people facing discrimination and human rights violations, including families forcefully evicted from their homes and women and children suffering from domestic violence. This program places them in real working conditions, assisting those at their most vulnerable, from individuals who face unfair charges or have had their basic human rights violated to groups of abused women and children. The work involved can truly change lives and volunteers/interns are essential to its success.

A Guide to Legal Volunteering Abroad
Why Volunteer Abroad in Law
Those interested in studying law are typically interested in improving the lives of others through legal recourse; volunteering abroad then becomes a natural interest for many lawyers and law students. Volunteering abroad takes this leaning toward humanitarianism to the next level, since laws aren’t equally respected or well-established in every country around the world.
Those that volunteer abroad in law often come back more satisfied with their career choice and profoundly appreciative of their opportunities in life, as well as their legal education. Legal volunteering in an underserved nation will most certainly broaden your perspective of the field, the world, and the populations that need your legal help most. Without venturing outside the walls of your home nation, it can be easy to forget the importance and power that law has on your life, and therefore you may not realize the ability you have to change lives for the better abroad.
Lastly, the most practical reason to volunteer abroad in law is the valuable experience you are sure to gain. If you are applying to law schools, legal volunteering experience will be a huge selling point, and if you are already a practicing lawyer, volunteer experience will speak to your personal dedication to helping people, and may even be factored in when you are considered for promotions or professional advancement.
