Professor awarded SSHRC Insight Development Grant
Professor Howard Kislowicz has received a SSHRC Insight Development Grant with Professor Kathryn Chan of the University of Victoria for their "Divine Intervention" Project.
UVic Law faculty member Dr. Kathryn Chan and University of Calgary Law faculty member Dr. Howard Kislowicz have received SSHRC funding for a two-year project that explores how civil society actors may influence the development of constitutional norms. The study, entitled “Divine Intervention: a study of the operation and impact of non-governmental interveners (NGOs) in Canadian religious freedom litigation”, aims to improve our understanding of the role that non-parties may play in judicial proceedings that implicate Charter rights.
