The Risks and Rewards of Clinic

The International Journal of Clinical Legal Education (IJCLE) and The Association of Canadian Clinical Legal Education (ACCLE) Conference

The Risks and Rewards of Clinic
University of Toronto, 10^th- 12^th July 2016

Our over-arching theme encourages participants to reflect on the balance between risk and reward for all the stakeholders in clinic.  In particular, we would like to encourage participants to include student and other partners’ voices in their presentations, ideally through collaborative writing and presentation in person or through video calling or recordings.

Taking part

Presentations at IJCLE/ACCLE can take one of three formats, each with its own structured proposal application form:

• Paper presentation
  These will be in traditional conference paper format, with a twenty minute presentation followed by questions.  

• Interactive seminar
  These sessions will be 90 minutes long, will involve active participation from the audience as well as input from the presenters and will be designed to generate discussion and new learning for the participants and the convenors. 

• Symposium
  These 90 minute sessions will consist of collaborative presentations around a common theme from at least three institutions and input from an independent discussant
