Happy Birthday to us! I look forward to hearing about all the fantastic progress made over the last 100 years. With some hopefully equally impressive facial hair along the way!

[Exeter Law School @ExeterLawSchool]

2023 marks the centenary of Exeter Law School. Through the year we will look back on our history and celebrate our evolution as a contemporary law school.
It all started in 1923, which saw Professor W.S. Holdsworth present the inaugural lecture to the School of Law.

I am looking forward to reading this and just in time for the Equality and Diversity module I am running this term.

[Oxford Human Rights Hub @OxHRH]

Latest edition of @SandraFredman's "Discrimination Law" is out now! 📕

Like the highly successful previous editions, it locates discrimination law within its historical & social context!

[David Barrett @DavidABarrett]

There is still time (and space) to submit an abstract to the Equality and Human Rights stream @SLSA_UK annual conference @UlsterUniSchLaw. Abstracts can be submitted here: https://t.co/NqO21K9mDP. Deadline is Monday 9th Jan. Happy to discuss.

[David Barrett @DavidABarrett]

I fully support @JustFairUk to demand #OurRightsNow - so much so that I am writing a book on this very topic (i.e. how to enshrine economic, social and cultural rights into domestic law).

[Just Fair - justfairuk.bsky.social @JustFairUK]

It is time to end the short term solutions.

It is time to demand #OurRightsNow and call for our economic, social & cultural rights to be enshrined into domestic law to protect people from this crisis. 8/8

🚨 NEW: There has been a staggering decline in apprenticeship starts since 2015, with bigger drops in areas of high deprivation.

Our research also found that young people from low-income backgrounds are underrepresented in higher & degree apprenticeships.

In honour of #HumanRightsDay later this week we are celebrating some classic #HumanRightsHeroes and their quotes. As there are a number of imminent strikes, today’s #Quote is from American political figure Eleanor Roosevelt reminding us to listen to the plight of those striking.

Delighted to see my research published in the Medical Law Review: how to promote healthy cities? I demonstrate how law can be deployed and argue that human rights are necessary. @ResearchTruud @CHLSBristol #urbanhealth #LegalDeterminantsofHealth https://t.co/UDREkHkCdr

I am exploring the extent that non-state actors should bear duties in relation to human rights (particularly social rights) and really benefitting from the work of @abclapham in this area.
