Chinese delegation visits the Humboldt Consumer Law Clinic
On 20 June 2014, a Chinese delegation, led by Mr Liu Xiaobao, vice-president of the National Judges’ College of the People's Republic of China, visited the HCLC to learn more about the concept and the functioning of law clinics in the field of consumer law. The meeting between members of the Chinese delegation and participants of the HCLC was a great success: By presenting (anonymously) cases they had worked on or were currently working on, the students demonstrated to the Chinese delegation their legal knowledge and related their experiences in the application of the law which they could gather from their participation in the HCLC.
The team of the HCLC would like to thank all presentation participants for the interesting discussions. We look forward to future visits of further delegations!
