Oregon Law Student Takes On United Nations Externship  

Oregon Law third-year student Tim Ream recently began an externship abroad with the United Nations.
 
Ream began working in the Climate Secretariat in Bonn, Germany, in early September helping to provide support to the parties negotiating a new climate agreement and helping to implement the original Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol.
 
Currently, Ream is working on reference materials that will travel to Bangkok where a meeting is scheduled to take place on the legal nature of an agreement in Copenhagen.  
 
Professor Svitlana Kravchenko played a behind-the-scenes role in facilitating the externship for Ream -- a result of her countless contributions to international law throughout the years.  
 
In addition to Ream, 2009 graduate Mariah Kennedy also began an internship recently with the Secretariat of the Aarhus Convention in the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland.
