Impact and Influence

Our academic staff produce world-leading research creating significant legal impact. Durham Law School's scholars advise parliamentarians and policy-makers around the world, called to give evidence in Parliament, have their research cited and quoted by the courts and international bodies and play a critical role in legal developments in the United Kingdom, United States and beyond.

The impact work delivered by Durham Law School academics benefits our research, the global influence of our insights for law and policy, and energizes our teaching. Students get insights into the law and its development from national and international leaders who are at the forefront shaping it.
