Each year, our Level Campus Chapters focus an annual human rights theme, mobilizing students across the country and engaging in critical discussions with an eye to promoting awareness and advocacy. As a culmination of the hard work by the Chapters throughout the year, our Level Campus Chapter at the Université de Montréal opened a call for applications to students wishing to have their voice heard through their annual journal, and were overwhelmed with the degree of interest and thoughtful submissions.

On April 9th, 2019, Level will be hosting our second annual #FacingResistanceTO fundraiser, focused on Uncovering Systemic Bias in the Justice System. Level is excited to announce our sponsors for this event.

Thank you to Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, WeirFoulds LLP, Torys LLP and Enbridge for your generous support for the second year in a row! With your assistance, we are able to continue disrupting prejudice, building empathy and advancing human rights.

This World Water Day we are reminded of Indigenous Peoples' ongoing fight for access to clean drinking water in Canada, and the efforts of Indigenous nations to hold the Canadian government accountable for protecting Aboriginal** water rights under s. 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982 (the "Constitution"). The government has a legal duty to protect the constitutional rights of Indigenous Peoples. We take a look at the statutes and caselaw dealing with this important issue, and how they have impacted society to date. 

We believe that elevating empathy, increasing inter-cultural awareness and embracing humility in the justice sector can help combat discrimination and create a justice system that serves the people who need it the most. This starts with legal professionals who strive to learn new ways to connect and better serve a broad array of clients.

Join us on April 9^th, 2019 from 1:00 – 4:30 p.m. as we host the following speakers.

Level is excited to announce two funding partners who have joined our mission to disrupt prejudice, build empathy and advance human rights! The Peter Gilgan Foundation and the Manitoba Law Foundation have committed their support to help us empower law students, lawyers and Indigenous youth to change the face of the justice system:

Over the course of the past 15 years, Level has worked closely with law students across Canada to engage with their communities and ignite change. We strongly believe that law students continue to play an integral part in advancing a culture of social consciousness.  Our student chapters are comprised of dedicated young leaders who continue to advance our important work on human rights, advocacy, and legal research on campuses across Canada, and remind us daily of the importance of community empowerment. Check out what some of our incredible Level Student Chapters have been up to this academic year, as well as some of the exciting events on the horizon!
