The International Centre for Family Law, Policy and Practice was established in October 2013 to bring together academic, practitioner and policy perspectives on all aspects of Family and Child Law, and to conduct and disseminate cross disciplinary and cross jurisdiction research in the broad area of that important field of English and Comparative Law in which its Director has worked for many years.
The International Centre is a development of the earlier work, between 2009 and 2013, of the Centre for Family Law and Practice, and the recognised need for an international hub to serve the global Family Law community.
The International Centre is an independent Not For Profit company limited by guarantee based in the UK, with a close connection with Westminster Law School at the University of Westminster where Professor Freeman holds her Principal Research Fellowship.
Please also refer to this website for information about research, activities, and access to the Centre’s journal International Family Law, Policy and Practice. Conference 2019 updates will also be available on the website.
