Cardiff Law and Global Justice is committed to engagement with southern scholars across the disciplines in this work, bringing their work to prominence among academic and policy circles in the UK and Europe.

Cardiff Law and Global Justice was established in 2016 at Cardiff University.

It supports a lively research programme, including an international doctoral studies cohort, and delivers teaching on law and development and global justice at postgraduate and masters levels.

The Centre is home to a pathbreaking Transnational Pro-Bono Law Clinic working with human rights law firms and NGOs in the UK, India and East Africa. It hosts an annual series of conferences and lectures with leading international scholars. With a particular focus on the global south and informed by post and anti-colonial perspectives, the Centre fosters high quality research in law, justice and globalization.
