The Action Committee welcomes you to its
2026 Summit on Access to Justice
November 23 to 25, 2026
Library and Archives Canada
395 Wellington Street, Ottawa, ON
What to Expect
Following the release of its new vision paper, Towards Justice as a Common Good, the 2026 Summit brings together justice leaders, Provincial and Territorial Access to Justice Collaboratives, community partners and researchers from across Canada to move that vision into action.
Together, we will explore how justice can be understood and built as shared public infrastructure, one that upholds dignity, true equality and fairness and is sustained through collective responsibility. The Summit is an invitation to reflect on the role each of us can play in accelerating the shift towards justice as a common good.
