On April 28, the third \u201cBe Just - Coffee Talks<\/strong>\u201d event took place, a space for dialogue and reflection with Claudia Gonz\u00e1lez, a lawyer and human rights defender, focused on the importance of an independent justice system in Guatemala. The event brought together university students and recent graduates, who participated in an open conversation about the current challenges facing the rule of law, patterns of criminalization, and the key role of the younger generations in defending justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event took place as part of the Be Just internship program and was organized by our intern Jenifer de la Cruz, with the guidance and support of the Be Just team.
