In January 2018, four University of Queensland law students embarked on a six-week international placement to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah in Malaysian Borneo with Forever Sabah, a non-profit Malaysian organisation.
The international environmental law clinic offered students a hands-on opportunity to make a real contribution to environmental justice while gaining a remarkable experience of living and working in Asia. The students were supported by funding from The New Colombo Plan.
Three of the students, Jane Hall, Ruth Cobbold and Karen Le, share their experiences working with Forever Sabah’s Legal Innovation Team to deliver legal advice and support.
