We want to build a community in the School where students can think critically and creatively about the law, all while honing essential skills. ELF enables students to define their own interest in law and legal practice beyond textbooks. In practice, this means looking at how justice, equality work in the everyday and how the law can be changed, transformed, and critiqued. We do this through a variety of skill-based and creative activities, from voice coaching workshops, book clubs, film events and tech panels.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-background-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:100;text-transform:uppercase\"><strong>Latest from the blog<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-query alignwide is-layout-constrained wp-block-query-is-layout-constrained\"><ul class=\"columns-3 alignwide wp-block-post-template is-layout-grid wp-container-core-post-template-is-layout-0fed8f92 wp-block-post-template-is-layout-grid\"><li class=\"wp-block-post post-478 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail category-blog-post czr-hentry\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-post-featured-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.qub.ac.uk\/exploring-law-forum\/2025\/02\/14\/addiction-2-fiction-podcast-the-bluest-eye\/\" target=\"_self\" ><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1792\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.qub.ac.uk\/exploring-law-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2025\/02\/da88b7bb-5cc5-436c-aefc-8ebef021f8b8.webp\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"Addiction 2 Fiction Podcast &#8211; The Bluest Eye\" style=\"height:200px;width:100%;object-fit:cover;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.qub.ac.uk\/exploring-law-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2025\/02\/da88b7bb-5cc5-436c-aefc-8ebef021f8b8.webp 1792w, https:\/\/blogs.qub.ac.uk\/exploring-law-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2025\/02\/da88b7bb-5cc5-436c-aefc-8ebef021f8b8-300x171.webp 300w, https:\/\/blogs.qub.ac.uk\/exploring-law-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2025\/02\/da88b7bb-5cc5-436c-aefc-8ebef021f8b8-1024x585.webp 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.qub.ac.uk\/exploring-law-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2025\/02\/da88b7bb-5cc5-436c-aefc-8ebef021f8b8-768x439.webp 768w, https:\/\/blogs.qub.ac.uk\/exploring-law-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2025\/02\/da88b7bb-5cc5-436c-aefc-8ebef021f8b8-1536x878.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1792px) 100vw, 1792px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-post-date has-small-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.qub.ac.uk\/exploring-law-forum\/2025\/02\/14\/addiction-2-fiction-podcast-the-bluest-eye\/\"><time datetime=\"2025-02-14T11:12:52+00:00\">February 14, 2025<\/time><\/a><\/div>\n\n<h2 style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\" class=\"wp-block-post-title has-medium-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.qub.ac.uk\/exploring-law-forum\/2025\/02\/14\/addiction-2-fiction-podcast-the-bluest-eye\/\" target=\"_self\" >Addiction 2 Fiction Podcast &#8211; The Bluest Eye<\/a><\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-post-excerpt has-small-font-size\"><p class=\"wp-block-post-excerpt__excerpt\">Alexandra Morar Welcome to Addiction 2 Fiction, where the only prescription to fill your avid reader needs is more fiction.
