What would be the best route to get into humanitarian law and are there apprenticeships for this?

I'm not too familiar with firms specialising in humanitarian law. However, if apprenticeships in this specific type of area aren't widely available, law apprenticeships in the broader field can provide a pathway into general legal practice, after which you could specialise through further experience and training. It might be helpful to try and network with humanitarian lawyers on Linked In and see if their connections have any opportunities.
