The uOttawa Public Law Centre at the University of Ottawa Faculty of Law is Canada’s leading centre for public law research, debate and engagement.

Public law expertise is crucial to understanding and addressing the issues facing Canada and the global community. Whether it is the future of our economy and sustainable development, climate change and the environment, the growing importance of cities in the lives of individuals, the human rights implications of technological development, or the need to address systemic racism and achieve reconciliation with Indigenous peoples, public law is there, shaping the world of possibilities and offering up tools for moving beyond where we are now.
