Trinity Women in Law is a subcommittee of DU Law Society. TWIL aims to empower women and gender minorities to reach their highest potential within the legal field. Over the past few years TWIL has enjoyed tremendous success at many of our events, establishing itself as a big name on campus!

TWIL kicks off the year with the launch of their Mentorship Programme. Students are paired with established legal professionals in order to gain 1-1 advice, feedback, and guidance during the first stages of their legal careers. Towards the end of the first semester, TWIL opens up submissions for their inaugural publication which aims to foster a diverse and informative selection of essays. TWIL also invites talented artists and photographers to submit their work in line with the prompt. The publication is launched in the second semester and it is an event you don’t want to miss! Throughout the year TWIL hosts social events and workshops to cater to all members through fun activities and skill development; headshots, CV review, and interview practice. Get ready to enjoy another week of activities during our campus-wide initiative for Women’s Week! Additionally, TWIL’s two major commercial awareness seminars are designed to cater to students who endeavor to learn more about a specific sector of law. TWIL also organises two flagship competitions, a moot court and a mock trial, to help students gain confidence in the courtroom and show off their oral advocacy skills!

TWIL hopes to educate, inspire, and empower as many students as possible with their events and opportunities. Keep an eye on their social media @trinitywomeninlaw throughout the year to see how you can get involved!
