This event was pulled from connectforanimals. Please verify the details before attending. End time is an estimate. This April 5 - 6, 2024, the Animal Activist Legal Defense Project at the Sturm College of Law will hold a free media training for activists and lawyers. Registration is free and open to all. Please join us! Securing media coverage is crucial to activism. It ensures your message spreads far and wide, creating the kind of public debate that is key to social change. But pitching stories and giving interviews are unique skills–we talk to the press differently than we do to others in our daily lives. For lawyers, this comes with special ethical obligations. The weekend will include panels that will be eligible for CLE credits for attorneys (9 general CLE credits, 1.2 ethics CLE credits). Join us in Denver – hear directly from journalists and communications professionals – learn how to sharpen your media skills and get your story out! All panels will be held in the Ricketson Law Building (2255 Evans Avenue, Denver CO 80210) at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law. Friday panels will be held in LAW180 and Saturday panels will be held in LAW165.
