Project Aristotle

GCLS has partnered with the Institute for Internet and Just Society for ‘Project Aristotle - A Comparative Constitutional Law and Policy Clinic’. The Institute is youth-led pro bono think tank based in Berlin, Germany. The aim of the Project was to prepare a research guide in the form of Country Reports, on what a structure of governance for the digital realm can look like when it is informed by interdisciplinary country-specific legal and policy research and analysis. The GCLS student team produced three Country Reports (Canada, Singapore and the United Kingdom), which have been published on the IIJS website (https://www.internetjustsociety.org/project-aristotle). Letters of Appreciation were issued by the IIJS to all the GCLS student members that worked on the Project.
Contribution to SDG/UNAI principles: The main objective of the project was to look at country practices and identify the legal as well as policy frameworks with respect to how human rights and constitutional values have been adapted to the digital era. The reports will help in providing a repository of laws related to technology that are present in the countries and will contribute to developing more inclusive laws, regulations and policies.
