摘要

实践 "法律教育为教育和个人带来了巨大的益处。然而,它也伴随着需要积极管理的风险,包括学生遭受骚扰和歧视的风险。本文探讨了平等法的范围,以及它如何适用于不同形式的 "实践性 "法律教育活动。文章探讨了平等法如何适用于 "志愿者 "职位,包括律师事务所合伙企业、大律师事务所、社区组织、法律实习和法学院开办的法律诊所。它考虑了法律框架的复杂性,以及法律专业学生在维护其平等权利时可能遇到的困难。报告认为,当前法律实践教育活动的法律框架中存在三个空白,尤其需要通过以下方式加以解决:采用更广泛的 "工作 "定义,将无报酬的角色也包括在内;对基于性别以外原因的骚扰行为进行规范;保护法律专业学生免受第三方(如客户和公众)行为的侵害。

Equality Law Protection for Legal Education: Internships, Volunteering and Clinics
‘Practical’ legal education offers significant educational and personal benefits. However, it also comes with risks that need to be actively managed, including the risk of students experiencing harassment and discrimination. This article considers the scope of equality law, and how it applies to different forms of ‘practical’ legal education activities. It considers how equality law applies to ‘volunteer’ positions, including those in law firm partnerships, barristers’ chambers, and community organisations, legal internships and law school-run legal clinics. It considers the complexity of the legal framework, and the resulting difficulties law students might have in asserting their equality rights. It argues there is a particular need to address three gaps in the current legal framework for practical legal education activities, by: adopting a broader definition of ‘work’ to include unpaid roles; regulating harassment on grounds other than sex; and protecting law students from the actions of third parties, such as clients and members of the public.
