The LEX Network takes its name from the Latin for law. It is a platform for academics and researchers interested in developing and supporting international and transdisciplinary scholarship on law, gender and sexuality.

The LEX Network is intended as a resource for sharing research, fostering collaboration and nurturing dialogue on a range of issues that relate to and shape feminist research on the intersections of law, gender and sexuality globally. LEX is specifically a hub to research activities that focus on justice, criminal justice as a system of regulation and social justice.

LEX welcomes membership from academics, independent researchers, students and practitioners from across the international community.
