The PhD researchers of the UHasselt Faculty of Law are proud to present their Young Legal Researchers Conference. The overarching theme of the conference is Governing Societal Challenges in Transformational Times. It will take place online on 21 December 2020, due to COVID-19 restrictions. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many conferences in 2020 were cancelled or postponed. Therefore, for this conference the explicit choice was made to have it take place on 21 December in any case. 

As a civic and young university, Hasselt University is committed to and for society. In line with this young nature and civic approach, the aim of the Young Legal Researchers Conference is to bring together young researchers (PhD researchers and postdocs) to make their research known and gain from the insights of experts outside academia.

Abstracts can be sent in before 20 November. The call for abstracts can be found on this website.
