Greetings from the GNLU Centre for Law and Society. We have great pleasure in announcing the 5th edition of the GNLU\u00a0Essay\u00a0Competition on Law and Society, 2020.<\/p>\n

Evidence indicates that the likelihood of pandemics has expanded over the previous century because of increased global travel and integration, urbanization, changes in land use, and greater exploitation of the environment. Multiple outbreaks have exposed gaps related to the timely detection of disease, availability of basic care, the economic recession which follows such pandemics, issues pertaining to privacy, administration of justice and laws during pandemics and lockdown, global coordination, etc. It has become clear that traditional response mechanisms and strategies have proven inadequate to the task of prevention and control.<\/p>\n

In order to encourage further research and reflections along these lines, the Centre for Law and Society is organizing the 5th edition of the\u00a0essay\u00a0competition on the theme\u00a0\u201c<\/em>Issues and Challenges during and post the Global Pandemic: Possible Reform, Strategies and Solutions<\/u><\/em>\u201d<\/em>.

  4. Mental Health and wellness<\/em><\/li>\n
