Wohlmuth Awards are given annually to select volunteer staff members to recognize extraordinary dedication. The award is named for Paul Wohlmuth, who was a professor at the University of San Diego Law School. Already in the early 1990s, even before JURIST had begun, he was a champion of innovative thinking in the law. Later in the decade, he established the Institute of Law & Systems Research, which was subsequently headed up by his partner Alice Anda and provided JURIST’s first seed funds.
The 2022 recipients of JURIST’s Wohlmuth Awards are:
- Ananaya Agrawal
