The Peter A. Allard School of Law hosts a vibrant community of feminist legal scholars who research diverse topics across a wide breadth of the law. Their research explores issues centred on race, sexual orientation, class, and disability. Many faculty members are also involved in research related to litigation, law reform, judicial education, media and public education, as well as academic publication.
