The law is not an end in itself. It can be used for good or for bad. It can marginalise and harm, but it can also lift those in need and uphold social values of fairness, equality and the rule of law.
UNSW Law & Justice is a top-ranking faculty and a global leader in law and criminology education and research, setting the pace in Australia for 50 years.
Our focus on student-centred and research-based teaching ensures our graduates have flexible skills, critical perspectives and broad horizons to help them thrive in an ever-changing world.
The faculty is a hub for thought-leadership and home to some of the world’s most highly regarded and influential minds. We are committed to the notion that the law must serve the needs of the community. We are united in our commitment to finding solutions for real-world issues and improving access to justice for some of the world’s most marginalised people.
Already, we have made advances towards constitutional reforms to ensure Indigenous Australians have a strong voice in public policy and the laws that affect them. We have influenced new policy frameworks and operational responses for people displaced by disaster and climate change. And we have made progress towards gender equality in Australia and around the world.
But there is still much more we need to do - and you can help. Your donation to UNSW Law will strengthen our capacity to influence public debate, shape government policy, and drive innovation across a range of pressing social and environmental justice issues.
