Abstract

Professor Emily Allbon began applying design principles to her work within legal education 25 years ago, and although her role has changed and the needs of young people learning law have shifted, the backbone of why design is still so pivotal remains. In this presentation, she talks about her eclectic practice involving virtual villages for land lawyers, mapping treacherous journeys to improve essay writing, unpicking Brexit, explaining consent to schoolchildren, improving understanding of reproductive rights in Nepal and clarifying procedures for making police complaints in the UK.
