RebLaw UK Conference 2026

You're invited to RebLaw UK 2026, the rebellious lawyers conference... ⚡⚡⚡

Grounded in the spirit of Gerald Lopez’s book ‘Rebellious Lawyering’, RebLaw is building a community of law students, practitioners, and activists working within social justice movements to challenge hierarchies of race, wealth, gender, and expertise within legal practice and education.

Founded in 2016, RebLaw UK is the sister conference to Yale Law School’s RebLaw, the largest student-run public interest law conference in the US.

Over the years, thousands of students, activists, practitioners and interested members of the public have attended RebLaw UK conferences.

This year, 10 years on from when it was first founded, Legal Action Group and the UCL Centre for Access to Justice are joining forces to bring you RebLaw UK 2026.

The conference will bring some of the most rebellious amongst us to inspire the next generation of activists and activist lawyers. The full programme will be released in early October. 

We're looking forward to bringing students, activists and practitioners together to imagine a future where human rights are universally respected, legal rights are understood and enforced equally and access to justice for all is a reality.

Join us on 21 November to be part of the movement.
