My article is featured on the front page of Laws journal (and it's free to read). It is of course about legal aid, and also about how that interacted with asylum policy in the 2022-24 period.

Love the cover photo and good to see it finally in print! Chapter 18 is mine: Undocumented- Insecure Immigration Status and its Impact on Children and Young People. The book contains a huge range of contributions incl one on Palestinian youth under occupation, written before the genocide started.
