Constitutions, Rights and Justice Research Group

Description

Established in 2021, the Constitutions, Rights and Justice research group seeks to foster a collaborative approach regarding how to talk about and conduct research on the nature of constitutions, different categories of rights (i.e., social, political, legal and employment) and the importance of justice in its many forms.

Constitutions, Rights and Justice is based within the School of Humanities at the University of Worcester. This innovative group brings together academics at the University of Worcester, external academics, legal practitioners and active and retired judges to work together on a myriad of issues and seek scope for collaboration within the wider academy and legal practice. The group builds upon five years of research and scholarly activity within the School of Law at the University of Worcester that has focused on issues such as the application of the Fraud Act 2006, the Miller litigation, the rule of law and access to justice.

The aims of the group are to:

• Engage with the public, the academy and legal practice through the dissemination of research and scholarship, the hosting of Public Lectures, workshops and research seminars.
• Foster collaboration between ordinary members, associate members and the wider academy and legal practice.
• Produce innovative research and other scholarly work that advance the work of the group.
