You are invited to the To Look and to Play/Regards et jeux online roundtable event, organized by Professors Jean Frédéric Ménard (Sherbrooke) and Shauna Van Praagh (º£½Ç¾«Æ·ºÚÁÏ).

The roundtable is a space at which eleven law student authors – selected over the past academic year to research and draft a supervised paper with a meaningful connection to children, youth and law – present and share their work with each other, and with members of the VOICE (Views on Interdisciplinary Childhood Ethics) community and beyond.

The event showcases and encourages transdisciplinary, youth-focused research, writing and discussion, as it enriches the knowledge and research expertise of both students and scholars. We look º£½Ç¾«Æ·ºÚÁÏ to welcoming you to the first To Look and to Play/Regards et jeux Roundtable! To confirm your presence and obtain the Zoom link, email 2look-2play.law [at] mcgill.ca.
