Application Process

The Summer School is open to participants aged 18–25 worldwide. It is designed for university students, recent graduates, and young professionals interested in law, diplomacy, leadership, and human rights. No prior legal training is required — only a strong interest in global change.

All applicants are required to complete an online application form. Our application can be completed in a few basic steps. As students work through their application, they may save their progress and return to the form before final submission.

  1. Fill out basic personal information

  2. Submit a short personal statement (maximum 500 words) on why you wish to join the Summer School

  3. Pay a non-refundable deposit to secure your place once accepted

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis until all places are filled. We encourage students to submit their applications as early as possible to increase their chances of being accepted.

Application Timeline

All applications are carefully reviewed by our admissions team. The committee seeks to select talented young leaders with diverse interests, backgrounds, and ambitions who will contribute to a well-rounded and intellectually engaging cohort. Each application is reviewed holistically, and qualified students who demonstrate a genuine interest in law, leadership, and human rights will be considered for admission.

Tuition & Fees

The Summer School is a non-residential programme. Participants arrange their own accommodation in London; a list of recommended options will be provided upon acceptance.

Programme Fee: £XX
Includes tuition, expert teaching, daily lunch, all programme-related transport, entry to venues, and the graduation ceremony.

Scholarships

The Girls Human Rights Hub is committed to making its programmes accessible to young people from all backgrounds. We believe financial circumstances should not be a barrier to education and leadership development. Our Scholarship Programme provides limited financial support to outstanding candidates based on need.

To be considered, students must submit a completed programme application, followed by a scholarship application. Scholarships are limited and awarded on a rolling basis until funds are exhausted. For this reason, we strongly encourage eligible students to apply as early as possible.

Diversity and Inclusion Statement

The Girls Human Rights Hub is committed to fostering a culture that embraces the values of diversity, equity, and inclusiveness. We believe that diversity — in all its forms — is a driver of new ideas, creativity, and meaningful social change. We are dedicated to creating an environment of dignity, respect, and belonging, while recruiting and supporting a diverse group of participants, mentors, speakers, and partners.

Promoting a nurturing, inclusive environment means actively opposing intolerance, discrimination, and bias. The principles and programmes of the Girls Human Rights Hub are designed to further inclusivity and cultural awareness. These values are recognized and supported fully by our leadership, staff, and global network. We believe that the responsibility for maintaining a culture of diversity and inclusion lies with all of us.

The Girls Human Rights Hub regularly collaborates with schools, foundations, universities, and community-based organisations to expand access to our programmes.
