The Global Alliance for Justice Education (GAJE) World-wide Conference, 2025 will be held at Lazarski University's Faculty of Law in Warsaw, Poland and organized with the European Network for Clinical Legal Education (ENCLE), the Polish Legal Clinics Foundation (FUPP), and the Student's Legal Clinic at Lazarski University. 

The General Conference is scheduled from the 23rd to the 26th of July, 2025. As always, this will be designed to facilitate as much participation and engagement by those attending. While there will be a small number of plenary sessions, including a few keynote speeches, most of the conference will consist of parallel interactive sessions/workshops or lightning talks, providing many opportunities for delegates to share ideas, experiences, teaching methods and materials. The structure of the General Conference prioritizes sessions that make use of interactive methods.

Session proposals will be reviewed by the Conference Program Team. Important considerations for proposal review are the sessions' relevance to justice education and geographical diversity amongst presenters.  We encourage session proposals from groups representing different countries. Session proposals should be submitted online using the Proposal Submission Form below. 

DEADLINE: 15th February 2025

• Summary of Process for taking part

  Session proposals should be submitted online through the Proposal Submission Form. 

  We encourage early submissions, as this helps not only the organizers to create an engaging program, it also helps presenters to receive early feedback on their proposals and then eventually to apply timely for possible funding that will allow them to attend the conference.

  Lead Presenter

  Where there is more than one presenter, we require that a “Lead Presenter” submit the proposal. That person, unless changed, becomes the point of contact for the presentation throughout the stage of proposal review, decision, scheduling, and questions and logistical information for the conference.

  Limitation

  For logistical reasons, participants can only be involved in a maximum of two session proposals.
