The Legal Priorities Project is an independent, global research project founded by researchers from Harvard University. We conduct legal research that tackles the world’s most pressing problems – we call this “legal priorities research.”
More about us
We aim to establish “legal priorities research” as a new research field. We currently focus on four cause areas: law and governance of advanced artificial intelligence, synthetic biology, institutional design, and meta-research. Our research is influenced by the principles of effective altruism and the longtermism paradigm.
More about our research
Join our bi-weekly office hours, a 45-minute meeting open to anyone who wants to get in touch and talk directly to LPP staff. You can ask us questions, give us feedback, or share your ideas with us in this informal, unstructured discussion space.
We have many exciting events coming up as part of our Legal Priorities Lab.
