New research looks at what people need when they turn to a community legal centre for help, and asks whether AI can support in meeting those needs. One finding: "AI cannot replace CLCs' current offerings, and clients will still need the 'shop front'" (Hastings, Cotterell & Bruce, 2026).

Coroners can recommend changes to help prevent future deaths. But what happens to those recommendations afterwards?

Most studies look at whether recommendations were accepted. Buta recommendation can shape policy through reviews, research and consultation, sometimes years later.

Our new Justice Methods paper sets out a new method for tracing the path from recommendation to reform and shows how it works using a 2015 recommendation on rock-fishing safety in NSW and the Rock Fishing Safety Act 2016.

At the International Access to Justice Forum in Melbourne/Naarm (28 to 30 October), we’ll be sharing our work on how people in regional, rural and remote NSW get legal help, who community legal centres are reaching, what happens after coroners make recommendations to prevent deaths, and how a national survey can bring unseen legal problems into view.

We’re a major sponsor of the Forum, and Olivia Nguy, our Director, is on the Steering Committee. Swipe through to see where to find us.

The Forum is sold out, but you can see the full program here: https://www.victorialawfoundation.org.au/resources/international-access-to-justice-forum-2026-program
