Research Groups
Research at Newcastle Law School is enhanced by the work of our School Research Groups and through our leadership in a number of Faculty Research Groups.
The Research Groups run a vibrant seminar series and other conferences and workshops, bringing in researchers from across Newcastle and beyond.
Our staff are part of a number of Faculty Research Groups. Members of the Law School have pioneered the development of the Human Rights and Social Justice Forum; the International Studies in Forced Migration group; and the Children and Young People Research Hub.
The Faculty Research Groups bring together scholars from across the University to share insights, methodologies and approaches on a number of key themes. The Faculty Research Groups organised conferences, seminar series and other events.
