Almudena Bernabeu, international attorney and director of Transitional Justice Program for the San Francisco-based Center for Justice and Accountability, was awarded the Katherine and George Alexander Law Prize from Santa Clara University School of Law on Wednesday at the university’s Harrington Learning Commons.
