Using the Law for Social Change: for Communities and Activists, with Lawmanity
Jen Ang, Founding Director of Lawmanity, will lead a participatory workshop for community organisations and activists, on using the law as a tool for social change. No prior experience of using or studying law is necessary! Come along to hear about historical and present day examples of how people and movements have made impactful change in their communities using the law, and to talk about how we can tackle issues that matter to you, using legal thinking and to support your campaigning strategies.
