‘Inspirational Legal Women’ podcast series launched
The International Bar Association (IBA) Legal Policy & Research Unit (LPRU) has launched the podcast series “Inspirational Legal Women.” The series encourages inspirational IBA members with interesting careers and remarkable stories to share their thoughts and experiences about what it means to be a woman in the legal profession and how they have navigated different types of workplaces and challenges over the course of their careers. The LPRU’s Sara Carnegie, director of Legal Projects, and Isla Tobin, Project Lawyer, will interview women across a variety of legal fields and jurisdictions.
IBA Secretary-General, Deborah Enix-Ross, lawyer at Debevoise and Plimpton LLP based at their New York office for more than 20 years, features in the first episode of the series. Enix-Ross co-founded the Women’s Interest Network within the American Bar Association’s International Law Section, advocating for women’s legal issues, something she has continued to do within the IBA. Enix-Ross was President of the American Bar Association from 2022-2023 and named on the Forbes List of America’s top 200 lawyers in 2024.
This episode is followed by insightful, fortnightly installments with other inspiring colleagues from across the world. The first conversation with Enix-Ross is available to listen to at www.ibanet.org/inspira tional-legal-women-podcast/deborah-enix-ross.
The Prosecuting Attorneys Association of Michigan’s Victim Services Training Unit will host an online lunch-time discussion between and among victim advocates. The Victim Advocates Lunch & Learn “Lettuce Talk” will take place online Thursday, March 27, from noon to 1 p.m. via Zoom.
