Research at the Sydney Centre for International and Global Law

The Associates within the Centre are engaged in research across diverse fields of international and global law spanning public international law, private international law and transnational and comparative law. We are engaged within our faculty as a community of scholars and are engaged with the broader community of scholars through out Australia and the world. We are committed to both theoretical and applied research seeing the former as an essential foundation to our Associates capacity to present useful research to the broader community.

We see our research and teaching as vitally linked. Our research expertise feeds back into enhancing the quality of our undergraduate and postgraduate teaching programmes and it is through those teaching programmes that we develop our expertise.

Our aim is to develop and expand a range of international law research projects which build on the existing expertise of the Faculty of Law and utilise the experience of other international law specialists to become the leading international law research institution in the Asia Pacific; and to obtain project specific funding both nationally and international and undertake pro bono research projects.

We supervise research degree students in a range of international and global law fields.

Our research programme is nominally divided into 5 broad programmes which overlap and intersect:

Public International Law

Private International Law

Comparative and Global Law

International Human Rights Law

Public International Economic Law
