Workshops given by legal experts in your class
Our free, interactive and fun legal education workshops are run by volunteer legal experts all over Quebec and can be implemented in a regular class period. They prompt youth to reflect, challenge their ideas and take a stance on legal questions that are a part of their daily lives.
The law impacts our lives in many ways. This means that our workshops can be easily integrated in many places during curriculum planning.
