Advocacy Arena
Law on paper and law in practice are different things. The gap between them is filled by people: making decisions, weighing incentives, and through these choices, defining standards.
Advocacy Arena invites you to participate in legal scenario games that put players inside the gaps. Each game centres on legal or governance scenarios that reflect the complexities of real-world situations. Participants take on the roles of the characters who shape the outcome: those who draft the terms, advise on the risks, make and enforce the rules, and bear the cost when something goes wrong.
Connect practice with authority and methodically identify how conclusions are reached. Advocacy Arena is built for legal teams, risk and governance managers, law students, and anyone who wants to explore how doctrine becomes default practice and to consider whether practices are robust or reckless.
Games
Divided by Doublespeak
Credit contracts designed for home loans attempt to simultaneously speak several languages. One that conforms to the consumer law, another that is unbridled by its constraints. One that is clear to the consumer, another that is intelligible to the courts. They also need to work in practice.
Privacy Pricetags
There is a trade-off between privacy and innovation in the marketplace of niches. Regulators prescribed cookie banners, while technology gave small businesses a fighting chance to reach the audiences most likely to value what they offer. Meanwhile, class action litigators anticipate a surge in internet-tracking claims. They're drawn by a lucrative statutory penalty framework and by the potential to pursue representative complaints.
