Education is sorely lacking in my country, and this degree would be a major step forward in my quest to change this situation. I cannot pretend that all of my motives are purely altruistic; I am, of course, attracted to the financial security that this degree and subsequent degrees would help me attain. In addition, I have a family of my own that requires both my financial and moral support. I will be better equipped to provide them with both after obtaining my master's degree. Not only will it enable me to find more meaningful and lucrative employment and thus provide my children and my family with a better lifestyle, but it will also provide my children with an example that all things really are possible if one is willing to work hard enough.

The same mentality can and should be applied to human rights. The abuses I have witnessed in my own country and in others have made me understand that human rights issues are both individual and systematic problems, and they need to be addressed in a variety of ways. It must start, however, with transparency of government and the justice system, and with the education of all peoples as to what their rights are and how they can go about ensuring that they are met. Helping people in this area has always been one of my primary goals, both as a person and as a lawyer.
It is my hope and belief that receiving my master's degree from this program will help me to this end. There can be no point to a life that does not connect in a compassionate, understanding, and helpful way with other human beings. My life has been validated many times in this regard, but I do not believe my work or my journey are done. I am very interested in making this institution my next step, and eagerly await your reply......
