About Us

JATL is a student society that aims to promote student discussions about the intersection between the law and social justice, whilst providing opportunities for professional networking and career development.

Some of JATL's key objectives include:

• Raising awareness of the interaction between the law and social justice
• Examining the social context surrounding the legal system
• Facilitating discussion about the law and its implications
• Professional networking and career development.


JATL achieves these goals by hosting professional networking functions, social and sporting functions and educative seminars, by organising an academic paper competition and by publishing an annual academic journal and quarterly newsletters.
