B&HR Access to Justice Lab

The B&HR Access to Justice Lab (A2J Lab) at the Macquarie Law School promotes corporate respect for human rights and access to justice for individuals and communities within Australia and Asia Pacific generally. We seek to bridge power imbalances between corporations and communities by conducting research, developing practical tools, building capacity and offering pro bono assistance to affected rightsholders to seek access to justice for corporate human rights abuses. Through its various activities, the A2J Lab contributes to building a more just and equitable society. The A2J Lab brings together leading business and human rights experts, practitioners, law students and external organisations. To develop effective remedial solutions to address corporate human rights abuses, we work with a diverse range of stakeholders, such as affected communities, businesses, civil society organisations, foundations, lawyers, trade unions, UN agencies and universities.
