SHAPING THE FUTURE OF LEGAL EDUCATION, PROFESSIONS AND SYSTEMS
The LawAhead Hub is an open, collaborative ecosystem created to build a Global Smart legal Community of global law firms, law schools, companies and key players, to explore the causes and consequences of deep transformations taking place in legal education, legal professions and legal systems globally.
What we do
Societies worldwide are facing deep and unprecedented transformations, which impose tremendous challenges and generate opportunities for legal systems, legal professions, and legal education.
The LawAhead Hub aims to engage a Global Smart Legal Community in the analysis of trends and the exchange of knowledge to think, anticipate and foster possible solutions to the most pressing issues facing the legal sector.
Activities & Iniciatives
Publications
Expert-written, sharp, global and future oriented focus publications will be continuously generated and widely disseminated to share knowledge that is insightful, impactful and directed to breaking barriers between academia, practice and policy makers around the globe.
Events
Global and future oriented events, bringing experts from the world over to address key changes to legal education, legal practice and legal systems will gather together members of the community. A number of those events will be held for LawAhead members only, while others will be open to the entire legal community.
Research projects
Publications and events are gateways to the development of research projects that seek to better understand underlying transformations in legal education, the legal profession and legal systems, with a view to effect change for the better.
Lifelong Learning
As a law school, we are committed with lifelong learning. Round tables and workshops composed of key players in the legal sector will be periodically held to explore educational needs of all players. We will leverage the insights, knowledge and expertise of our faculty and leading experts across the globe to provide solutions that are relevant to today’s most pressing legal challenges.
