This session illustrates how service learning can be integrated into student pro bono activities through OPGO Assist, a project in collaboration with the MSF\u2019s Office of Public Guardian. Students support deputies by filing mandatory annual reports, gaining practical experience while helping ensure legal compliance.<\/p>\n
Participants will learn about mental capacity law in Singapore, including the LPA and deputyship, and consider how similar activities could work in their own countries. The session will cover student roles, practical tasks, and strategies for using service learning to strengthen both education and pro bono impact.<\/p>\n
