In a partnership with The Carter Center, the Emory University School of Law’s Center for Civil Rights and Social Justice (CCRSJ) will offer a symposium, titled “Advancing the Rule of Law in U.S. Elections,” Thursday and Friday on Emory’s campus in Atlanta.

This symposium will launch a collaboration between the CCRSJ and the center that aims to increase support for civil rights and social justice in the legal community. The event will include a continuing legal education (CLE)-accredited discussion and dialogue on election law and voting rights with key members of the legal profession, Georgia community members, and other local leaders. A total of 6.5 hours of CLE credits will be offered at the two-day event.
