Reflecting on an inspiring event during the University of Alberta’s International Week! I had the privilege of attending "Bringing the Law to Life with Justice Martin" hosted by the University of Alberta Faculty of Arts in collaboration with Canadians For A Civil Society and the Centre for Constitutional Studies. Justice Sheilah Martin, an esteemed member of the Supreme Court of Canada, graced us with her insights on advancing human rights, justice, peace, and freedom for all. Here are some key takeaways that resonated deeply with me: 🤝 Heart is at the core of solving societal issues. 📜 Laws play a vital role in upholding human equality and rights. 🌍 Human rights are fundamentally about people and communities. 💡 Moving from legal documents to real-life practice is essential for progress. 👥 Communities coming together can drive social change. ⚖️ Equality rights, particularly Section 15, are crucial for equal justice in Canada. 🌱 Courage and conviction are needed to challenge existing norms and advocate for change. 🤔 Dialogue and understanding across differences are essential for inclusion. 🙌 The way forward is through continuous learning and collaboration. I also note that it was extremely powerful to hear about the work of inclusion through another lens, that being from the lens of the law. Perhaps not surprisingly, but worth celebrating, our conclusions are the same even though we approach creating a more inclusive world from two different places. This leads me to an important reminder: it's through our collective effort that we'll be able to drive meaningful change and reinforces the notion that we are stronger together. Let's keep these insights close as we work towards a more just and inclusive society. Remember, change starts with each and every one of us. Together, we can make a difference! #JusticeForAll #HumanRights #Inclusion #SocialJustice #ChangeAgents

At a recent conference in Montreal, access to justice advocates emphasized the importance of a people-centered approach, advocating for the inclusion and elevation of the voices of those directly experiencing the justice system. Despite calls for user-focused research, most studies still prioritize the perspectives of legal professionals, which may not fully capture the needs of justice system users. The conference also highlighted the need for a balanced approach that includes both quantitative and qualitative research to understand the real impact of access to justice initiatives.
