In this episode, we speak with Dr Anthea Roberts (@AntheaERoberts) one of the world's leading international law scholars. I speak to her about her journey into international law and unpack the fluid and cross-disciplinary nature of her scholarship. We explore what drives her and what her unique research process and methodology look like. Anthea also sheds light on the tools, techniques and frameworks she uses to think, research and communicate with the world. The discussion further looks at how the international legal academy and its present ecosystem overall needs more innovation, diversity and inclusivity to evolve into a more rich discipline.
