Description
The Socio-Legal Studies Association (SLSA) Seminar Competition supports the delivery of seminars and short conferences that exchange and disseminate socio-legal knowledge. Subject matter is unrestricted, provided applicants demonstrate relevance to the socio-legal community. Academic seminars and workshops are welcome, as are outreach events and engagements with non-academic organisations that have wider local or regional significance.
The competition welcomes innovative approaches and activities that build capacity in socio-legal research, introduce scholarship to new audiences, or increase awareness of theoretical and methodological approaches. Proposals may seek complementary funding alongside an SLSA award. Although the program page includes series of events within its scope, the guidance cautions that applications for more than one event are unlikely to receive funding.
