The association of transnational law schools
About atlas
The Association of Transnational Law Schools (ATLAS) was formed in 2006 with the mission of bringing together talented doctoral students in the field of law. ATLAS strives to promote in-depth study of legal issues related, but not limited to: the comparative legal and regulatory responses to globalization; the evolution of transnational law; and the challenges involved in international governance.
ATLAS Agora Summer School
On a yearly basis, ATLAS organizes a summer school for graduate students, “Atlas Agora,” meant to think and rethink the present-day issues of international and transnational law. This event is designed to encourage legal scholarship by fostering a community of doctoral candidates and promoting the development of exceptional dissertations. The program consists of three different parts: lectures, workshops and the faculty conference.
ATLAS AGORA SUMMER SCHOOL 2023
Every year one of the partner universities is appointed to host the ATLAS Agora Summer School. In 2023 it was hosted at Osgoode Hall Law School of York University, located in Toronto, Canada.
