Join ANJeL
ANJeL welcomes jurists and scholars from Australia, Japan and
the rest of the world to join ANJeL. The primary benefit of joining
ANJeL is that you will be kept informed of events and opportunities
organised by ANJeL, including conferences, continuing legal education
seminars, specialist courses, research visitorships and student
support activities. More importantly, as a 'network' of scholars,
ANJeL invites you to approach us about
potential collaborations, whether in teaching, research or community
engagement. For example:
- ANJeL is working with law firms in Japan and Australia to
support student research and co-develop online research resources
in Japanese law;
- ANJeL directors are teaching specialist courses at leading
law schools in Japan; and
- ANJeL is collaborating with Japanese universities to co-sponsor
research conferences.
How to Join
As a broad community of jurists and scholars, ANJeL welcomes
applications for membership, associateship or affiliation
with ANJeL:
- ANJeL members are members of faculty at ANU, UNSW and
USydney actively engaged in, or with an interest in, the Japanese
legal system;
- ANJeL associates are scholars, jurists or government
officials with an active interest in Japanese law or Australian-Japanese
comparative law. Associates may be based in Australia, Japan
or anywhere else in the world.
- ANJeL affiliates are bodies, whether incorporated or
unincorporated, who make a significant contribution to ANJeL
activities. Law firms are especially encouraged to apply for
affiliation.
To join, simply send us an email with the following information:
