About the Project

In its continued effort to foster civic engagement and education on the internet, the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard Law School and the Films for Justice Institute at Seattle University School of Law are collaborating to launch the Lessons from Woburn project. The goal is at once to open a public dialogue on the moral and political issues raised by the book and movie versions of A Civil Action, and to use both the book and movie as tools to teach multiple levels of law to many people—from those who want to know what a civil action is to law students who need to know how to file one. Please see our complete overview.

We are a network of teaching and research faculty at Harvard Law School and elsewhere; students, entrepreneurs, lawyers, and virtual architects who seek to identify and engage the challenges and opportunities the Internet presents.

The Films for Justice Institute is located at Seattle University Law School. Its mission is to encourage the training of ethical lawyers through visual media.
