Festival of Social Science 2021: Community Legal Empowerment: my community, my voice, my power

This event has ended.

Take this opportunity to contribute to the development of an evidence gathering toolkit to support practitioners, lawyers, communities, and others to better understand culture, context and place.   

We believe the law can be an effective tool for protecting, restoring, and enhancing the livelihoods of indigenous communities when rooted in the community’s needs, aspirations, and ambitions. Join us to test and expand the concept of legal empowerment and learn about the social, environmental, and legal challenges that come with development projects and how we can work together to ensure they have the maximum benefit.
