Proposals submitted by authors from Argentina, Chile, Mexico and Uruguay were selected through a competition designed to highlight the impact of civil procedure reforms on the practice of law in Latin America. The competition was held in the context of the project \u201cImproving Access to Civil Justice in Latin America\u201d that JSCA is developing with the support of Global Affairs Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
JSCA Training Director Leonel Gonz\u00e1lez stated that the purpose of the competition was to encourage multidisciplinary research on how the practice of law in the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean has been impacted by changes in this area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHaving research on and information about experiences with the practice of law will allow us to expand our perspective on the role that these professionals play in ensuring that the people of Latin America have access to justice and in contributing to the design of public policies oriented towards eliminating the barriers to access that remain,\u201d Gonz\u00e1lez said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
