Announced: Hogan Lovells Equality and Diversity Essay Competition 2023

The Hogan Lovells Equality and Diversity Essay Competition 2023 has been launched.

This year's theme will focus on 'how does, and should, the law ensure accessible spaces for learning in universities'

Competition entries will be judged by a distinguished panel comprised of the Rt. Hon. Lord Neuberger of Abbotsbury, Antonia Layard and Jonathan Herring.

The competition is open to all undergraduate students in the Oxford Law Faculty, including those who were finalists in the 2022-2023 academic year. 

A prize of £1000 will be awarded to the winner of the competition. This sum has been set with a view to enabling the prize-winner to take up opportunities for vacation work in the coming year that might otherwise be inaccessible given travel and accommodation costs. The winning essay will also be published on the Oxford Law website. A second prize of £250 will be awarded to the runner-up.

The terms of the competition have been sent to all undergraduate students and have also been published on the Faculty's Equality and Diversity site.
