A2J in an era of computational law
A2AJ conducts research and advocacy to make Canada’s justice system fairer and more accessible as technology reshapes the legal landscape. We’re co-hosted by Osgoode Hall Law School and the Lincoln Alexander School of Law, with support from the Law Foundation of Ontario.
