The University of Toronto Faculty of Law is delighted to provide an innovative program: “The Program on Ethics in Law and Business”. This program, the first of its kind in North America, addresses contemporary ethical challenges at the intersection of law and business. It brings together key players to foster discussion and understanding about legal ethics and the corporation, including issues of an ethical nature that arise in complex corporate transactions.
Mr. Mayo Moran explains that “This program is fundamentally important to the development of our collective thinking on ethics at the intersection of law and business. It will fill a gap on this issue that currently exists in both the academy and society at large and bring much needed attention to these pressing issues.”
Academic leadership for this initiative is provided by Professor Anita Anand and the program’s Advisory Board, comprised of distinguished corporate and legal minds in this area. The board will be chaired by The Honourable Frank Iacobucci, Senior Counsel, Torys LLP.
Over the past few years, we have held many events and programs under this new umbrella. Some of these events are described below.
