The University of Newcastle Australia Law School presents a symposium, Evidence Based Law and Practice, May 22, 2017. Abstracts are due Feb. 17, 2017.
Being evidence-based means that law-and policy-making, and professional practices, are grounded in rigorous evidence of what is effective in achieving desired outcomes. The evidence-based movement in law is concerned with improving research and evaluation in all legal sectors, including legal education, legal practice, law-making and judging.
