This event showcases research undertaken by faculty and doctoral students at the Faculty of Law.
Anti-discrimination Law: A Conversation between Legal Theory and EDI Practice
How does anti-discrimination law engage with EDI practice and vice versa? Does EDI have any connection with legal theory in this field of law? What are the factors that enable this conversation or conversely, hinder it? Would a closer connection be helpful to the goals of either?
This SSD EDI workshop focuses on these questions and seeks to answer them through examination of specific aspects of discrimination law in education, employment and the environment.
