Using evolving technologies effectively, including interactive tools and generative AI
Using data in a practical way to inform and improve public legal education work
Experiences with and strategies for connecting with rural and remote, and Indigenous communities
Supporting the critical justice-related work being done on the front lines by non-lawyer community workers across Canada
