This year’s theme, Amplifying Children and Youth Voices, calls us to listen more deeply, act more boldly, and ensure that Indigenous children and youth are not only heard but centered in the systems that shape their lives.
The University of Ottawa Faculty of Law is honoured to host the 2027 Kawaskimhon National Aboriginal Moot. Established at the University of Toronto in 1994, the Kawaskimhon Moot is a unique national gathering that brings together law students from faculties of law across Canada to engage with complex and evolving Indigenous legal issues. Hosted each year by a different Canadian law school, the moot provides a distinctive, consensus-based, non-adversarial experience that integrates Indigenous legal traditions with federal, provincial, and international law.
