Courts and the judiciary constitute a key institution in Australia.\u00a0 The Judicial Research Project at Flinders University led by Matthew Flinders Distinguished\u00a0Professor Sharyn Roach Anleu<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Emerita Professor Kathy Mack<\/a> uses varied empirical research strategies, including interviews, surveys and observation studies, to undertake wide-ranging research into the Australian judiciary.<\/p>\n

The Project research is conducted and reported independently of the courts and government.

Key areas and issues which the Project is investigating include:<\/strong><\/p>\n
