Introduction to Public Legal Education

Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

Public legal education (PLE) began to take shape as a field of practice in Canada during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Since then hundreds of individuals and organizations have been empowering Canadians to engage in law-related activities of interest to them. These efforts have been accompanied by research and reflection as the PLE community has worked to ground its practice in theory and test its theory in practice.
