Application due date for Student Working Group Proposals

Dear Upper Year JD Students at U of T Law:

We are currently accepting proposals from upper year students who are interested in leading or renewing a student working group at the Asper Centre next year. Please find the Call for Proposals for 2024-25 Asper Centre Working Groups HERE. The application is due at EOD on Thursday August 15, 2024.

Working groups at the Asper Centre provide law students with a unique opportunity to conduct legal research and advocacy on Canadian Constitutional and Charter rights issues, often in partnership with an external organization and members of the bar. Examples of past working groups at the Asper Centre and more information about our working groups may be found at http://aspercentre.ca/clinic/student-working-groups/.

This coming year, the Asper Centre welcomes proposals from students who would be interested in leading a working group focused on indigenous peoples’ rights or children’s rights, however all proposals will be equally considered. If you would like to apply to lead a working group but need some assistance in developing your working group proposal, please contact tal.schreier@utoronto.ca.

Thank you for your interest and we look forward to working with you.

Successful groups will be notified prior to the start of Fall 2024 term.
