How Could Justice Lead To Happiness : Shokouh Abadi : Tedxyouth@miramontehighschool

Resilient and anti-fragile lawyers can increase access to justice, enhance sustainable development and improve the level of happiness. This procedure is not just true for lawyers and access to justice, but applicable to other professionals: resilience and anti-fragility help you become happier and expand happiness in the world. Dr. Shokouh Abadi is a lawyer with academic and professional background in different countries across different continents, from the Middle East, to Europe, and North America. She was born and raised in Iran. She went to school in France for a few years. She finished school, obtained her Law degree and became a qualified lawyer in Iran. She then moved to London, England, for her postgraduate studies, where she obtained her second Masters’ degree and her Ph.D. in Law. She moved back to Iran and worked for 6 years as a lawyer under different capacities from counsel, to manger, practitioner, and lecturer. That wasn’t all. Immigrating to Canada and becoming a lawyer in a third country, this time as a mother of two, were other changes that she experienced in the middle of her career. Her journey in different countries with all the challenges, led her to find the ultimate goal in her life: happiness, and its correlation with the essence of her profession: justice.
