The WCLR is pleased to announce that our annual prizes of $100/75/50 USD (or equivalent value in other international currencies) will be awarded to the students who submit the best papers on a topic of interest to our readers. Eligible students are those in law school or graduate students from other cognate disciplines. The papers must accompany an endorsement from the student's faculty member that in their opinion the paper is worthy of publication and must comply with our Submission Checklist and Author Guidelines. They will be reviewed by our Editorial Board. The Student Prizes will be announced in the third issue of each volume for submissions published in that volume.
ABOUT
The WCLR is a non-profit, open access, peer-reviewed international journal focusing on wrongful convictions and miscarriages of justice. While we are fundamentally a law review, we welcome submissions from other disciplines (e.g. criminology, sociology, psychology, criminal justice etc.). We aim to be the preeminent repository of articles, book reviews and case commentaries in our field of endeavour. We will publish high-quality, original, empirical and theoretical research.
