Happy to pass along this announcement:
Dear colleagues and friends of UW Law,
You are invited to join us this October to mark the launch of the Responsible Business Law Initiative (RBLI), a new initiative of the Barer Institute at the University of Washington School of Law.
To help us celebrate, we are delighted to welcome Alison Taylor and Klaus Moosmayer, two leading global voices on responsible business, who will explore how changing expectations around companies’ impact on people and the planet are shaping regulation and the role of lawyers.

Today’s companies operate in a rapidly changing global environment and growing scrutiny of their impact on human rights and the environment. Lawyers are increasingly being called on to navigate these pressures and advise businesses on risk, strategy and decision-making. RBLI examines these shifts to shape legal education, advance research and global dialogue, and build career pathways for the next generation of responsible business lawyers. The Barer Institute for Leadership in Law & Global Development is proud to launch RBLI as part of UW Law’s commitment to global impact. |
