Concluding Remarks

About this event

The Creative Legal Research Workshop offers a unique space for graduate students in law and arts students conducting research on law and normativity to explore the themes of: empirical legal research, transdisciplinary research, research ethics and positionality.

As part of a day-long experience, graduate students will be engaged in interactive sessions and invited to present their work on panels hosting academic leaders in these fields.

Attendees will benefit from a unique opportunity for practical training on non-traditional approaches to legal research, as well as the chance to forge new connections with researchers in other faculties with invaluable insights and experience in these areas.

The event is co-sponsored by the McGill Centre for Human Rights and Legal Pluralism and the Labour Law and Development Research Laboratory, with support from McGill’s Faculty of Law.
