Connecting perspectives. Sharing knowledge.

Location: Leipzig University of Applied Sciences, Trefftz Building, Gustav-Freytag-Straße 43-45, 04277 Leipzig
The law and the rule of law are the backbone of our democratic society—but how can we explain them in a way that makes them understandable and accessible to everyone? Under the motto „Connecting Perspectives. Sharing Knowledge.“ The first Federal Forum on Education in law and the rule of law invites stakeholders from all sectors of the administration of justice, education, social work, academia, journalism, and politics to find answers together on November 27 and 28, 2026, in Leipzig .
The focus is put on transdisciplinary exchange and practical solutions: Through keynote presentations, workshops, and a barcamp, best-practices will be presented, pressing issues and scholarly findings will be discussed, and innovative methods will be tested. With this conference, the Forum Recht Foundation offers a platform for jointly shaping the field of legal education and building a sustainable network— with the goal of making the law more understandable and thereby strengthening trust in the law and the rule of law.
