Ethical legal technology innovations require meaningful collaborations among lawyers and technologists (software developers) and others, to promote accountability, equity, and inclusivity. While it takes considerable courage to overcome the many barriers to interdisciplinary cooperation, this symposium will feature a diverse group of legal educators who are leading initiatives to produce new learning frameworks, curriculum, and resources for ethical legal technology development and education. Attendees will learn about how ethical legal technology innovation can improve racial and social justice, expand access to justice, the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration, as well as how law schools are successfully implementing initiatives.
