According to Noel Lim, “real justice means maintaining your
rights as well as your dignity”. It’s a mantra he’s hoping to
inspire in law students and grads coming through the ranks.
On this episode of The Protégé Podcast, host Jerome Doraisamy is
joined by Anika Legal founding chief executive Noel Lim to discuss
how and why the community legal centre got started, what it aims to
do and why such work to ensure access to justice is so important,
and how it involves students completing their practical legal
training to bolster their professional skills and insight into key
justice issues.
Mr Lim also details why access to affordable housing is such a
pertinent challenge, how the age of coronavirus exacerbated such
concerns, how to better look after one’s self whilst being immersed
in such legal work, and how best those coming through the ranks can
meaningfully make time for volunteer work such as addressing and
providing safe and affordable housing.
