Help to understand the legal system and improve access to the law
Understanding how people see, and engage with the law
The Public Understanding of Law Survey (PULS) is a Victoria-wide survey which seeks to understand how people see, understand and respond to everyday legal problems, and the extent to which they have the capability to resolve problems effectively.
Funding to build data capability and research skills
Knowledge Grant applications are now open to community legal centres and not-for-profit community organisations which provide a dedicated legal service.
We offer up to $50,000 to improve data capability and research skills to better understand and respond to community need.
