The Future of Community Law | Community Law Series Ep 3

In Part Three of this joint series between Community Law & Mediation and the Voluntary Assistance Scheme of The Bar of Ireland, co‑hosts Gemma McLoughlin Burke BL and Aoife Kelly Desmond explore how we can meet new areas of need such as children’s law and environmental justice, the role of community law centres in a new civil legal aid system and how we can make sure community law is a career pathway for young practitioners.
