In 2009, Attorney Emily Schaeffer made it into the "25 Intelligent Optimists of the year" list of the Dutch magazine Ode.

Thirty-five-year-old Schaeffer is a human rights lawyer and an activist, who fights for a cause inside as well as outside the courtroom: After representing the residents of the Palestinian village of Bil'in in a petition against the route of the security barrier built by Israel on the village lands, she demonstrated alongside her clients in their weekly protests, which received significant international media attention. Schaeffer also represents African asylum seekers, with whom she volunteers in her spare time. What's more, she is a vegan who champions animal rights.
