Get ready for Law Week, a dynamic festival of events designed to help people explore the law in fun and informative ways. From 13 –19 May choose from over one hundred free events from court tours, to mock trials to activities for families, and more.
This week Victoria Law Foundation awarded $20,000 in grants to bring 13 of these events to life across Victoria, including legal health checks, information sessions and opportunities to find out where to get help with legal problems. More details will be released shortly.
Regional and new events were given priority for Law Week Grants this year to provide opportunities for those outside Melbourne. We’re excited to see the reach of Law Week extended through this funding.
Check out the full list of Law Week grant recipients.
The official Law Week 2019 program will be available at the end of March. Stay tuned for the full line-up.
