The Rooms We Wanted

The symposium “The Rooms We Wanted: What a Year of Decolonisation Seminars Revealed about a Law School” reflects on the Decolonisation Seminar Series at the University of Edinburgh that ran across the 2025–26 academic year and explored different facets of decolonising legal research.This symposium adopts a collective and reflexive mode, bringing together participants’ and speakers’ as well as the organisers’ perspectives, and aims to provide resources and a starting point for those who would like to (further) engage with decolonial methodologies, as well as those who are unfamiliar with them but curious about their facets and potential areas of application.
