The EYBA Research
Committee

The EYBA Research Committee plays a vital role in advancing the Association’s educational and strategic initiatives. Working in close collaboration with the EYBA Board, the Committee actively supports the organization of online webinars and knowledge-sharing events tailored to the evolving needs of young legal professionals.
In addition to curating high-quality content, the Committee helps identify new professional development opportunities for our members, fostering continuous learning and cross-border collaboration.
