research grants
how to apply:
our grants support and encourage legal writing that is of value to canadian lawyers, notaries and judges in their day-to-day work in the law and in the administration of justice. our grants are generally in amounts greater than $5,000 and less than or equal to $15,000.
we provide funds for legal research that falls into three broad categories:
- research and writing that emphasizes the statement of existing rules of law, which is often called doctrinal research.
- research that relates to the workings of the legal system.
- research that relates to developments in fields peripheral to legal doctrine, such as criminology, psychology, psychiatry, sociology and economics, and their relationship to rules of law.
