Advocacy Arena
Law on paper and law in practice are different things. The gap between them is filled by people: making decisions, weighing incentives, and through these choices, defining standards.
Advocacy Arena invites you to participate in legal scenario games that put players inside the gaps. Each game centres on legal or governance scenarios that reflect the complexities of real-world situations. Participants take on the roles of the characters who shape the outcome: those who draft the terms, advise on the risks, make and enforce the rules, and bear the cost when something goes wrong.
Connect practice with authority and methodically identify how conclusions are reached. Advocacy Arena is built for legal teams, risk and governance managers, law students, and anyone who wants to explore how doctrine becomes default practice and to consider whether practices are robust or reckless.

Divided by Doublespeak
Credit contracts designed for home loans attempt to simultaneously speak several languages. One that conforms to the consumer law, another that is unbridled by its constraints. One that is clear to the consumer, another that is intelligible to the courts. They also need to work in practice.
The Luna Posse
The Luna Posse applied to join the new Astro Games League. When the team recovered from their initial disappointment at being rejected, they got curious about why. The Sports in Space Agency uses automated tools to assist in its deliberations about admission to the League. That might be a black box, unless a freedom of information application can produce transparency into the administrative decision making process.
