Foti Vito recognized by American Society of International Law

Foti Vito, an alum of U of T's Faculty of Law, has been awarded a 2025 Arthur C. Helton Fellowship by the American Society of International Law (ASIL).

Established in 2004, the Arthur C. Helton Fellowship Program recognizes the legacy of the late Arthur Helton, a prominent refugee and human rights scholar and advocate.

A judicial law clerk at the Court of Appeal for Ontario, Vito received several awards during his studies, including the Ludwik & Estelle Jus Memorial Human Rights Prize (Emerging Leader), Nelson Mandela Award and International Human Rights Program Fellowship. 

With the support of the Helton Fellowship, Vito will work with the Youth Initiative for Human Rights in Kosovo on international human rights reporting and legislative reform initiatives as part of their Human Rights and Rule of Law Program.
