Edinburgh Law School to host Scottish University Law Clinic Network Round Table Event
Tue 13 May 2014
This conference, which is the third annual round table event of the Scottish University Law Clinic Network, is designed to bring together students and staff in Scottish and other universities to share ideas about how universities can contribute to resolving problems surrounding access to justice. This year a major focus of the conference will be on the interaction between social work and law on which topic presentations and workshops will be delivered by three of the world’s leading figures: Carrie Anne Hagan, Clinical Associate Professor of Law, Indiana University; Susan McGraugh, Associate Clinical Professor of Law, Saint Louis University School of Law; and Stephanie K. Boys, Assistant Professor of Social Work at Indiana University School of Social Work and an Adjunct Professor of Law at Indiana University.
We are also delighted that David McQuoid-Mason, father of Street Law in South Africa, will be returning this year with his “How to teach Street Law” workshop, and Richard Grimes, Director of Clinical Programmes at the University of York will be a welcome and expert contributor to our other workshops.
This event will be of value to anyone who is interested in delivering access to justice, either through public legal education or more direct services to the public.
The conference programme can be downloaded here.
The event will cost £5 for students and SUCLN members; £50 for organisations and other waged individuals.
