The Research Unit for Legal and Constitutional Interpretation and Theory (RULCI), in collaboration with the Research Chair in Gender, Transformation, and Worldmaking, cordially invites you to attend our annual colloquium: (RE)SEARCHING, (RE)CONFIGURING, (RE)IMAGINING SOURCES

In a world searching for direction, we invite you to look beyond the "singular fountain" of traditional legal sources. We aim to explore the plural rivulets—the rhizomes, the stories, the protests, and the landscapes—that challenge formalist assumptions and address the complexities of decoloniality and power.
