Cyd-sefydlodd yr Arsyllfa ar Hawliau Dynol Plant a sicrhaodd gyllid grant i sefydlu Canolfan Gyfreithiol y Plant Cymru. Rhwng 2014 a 2020 arweiniodd Jane brosiectau olynol a ariannwyd gan grantiau i ddatblygu dulliau hawliau dynol o rymuso plant fel ymchwilwyr a chyfryngau newid.

LAA103C Cyfraith Camwedd

The Law of Tort is a branch of the civil law which provides possible remedies for the protection of a person¿s interests in relation to different forms of loss which may be experienced as a result of different types of incident. Examples of loss considered in this module include physical damage to the body or to property, injury to reputation and injury caused by the condition of premises. In deciding whether there is liability in tort, the claimant is required to demonstrate that he was owed a duty by the defendant and it may be vital to determine the degree to which one side or the other was to blame for what happened. It may matter whether the defendant caused the injury deliberately, negligently, or there may be liability even though the person who has caused the damage was not to blame at all.
LAA124C Cyfraith Camwedd

In deciding whether there is liability in tort, the claimant is required to demonstrate that he was owed a duty by the defendant and it may be vital to determine the degree to which one side or the other was to blame for what happened.

LAA210 Family Law: Parents & Children

This module examines the law relating to parenthood and the parent/child relationship in England and Wales. It focuses particularly on issues relating to parenthood, parental responsibility, children's rights, parental disputes over children and public law issues surrounding child protection.
LAA368 Street Law

Street Law is a free legal education programme delivered to schools or community groups. It empowers people by informing them about the law, legal system and human rights in a democratic society. This module enables students to develop and deliver a Street Law session on a selected topic. Students will be supported to select a legal topic, conduct legal research and prepare a session suitable to the selected audience. Through a mixture of whole group workshops, supervision of their individual and team project work and through delivery and evaluation of their session, students will gain skills and confidence in communicating complex areas of law in ways which are accessible to members of the public. They will gain understanding of why law is sometime perceived negatively and about barriers to access to justice. They will develop strategies for challenging negative perceptions of law, building understanding and encouraging discussion. They will practise and improve their interpersonal skills (communication, negotiation, presentation, team-working, lawyering skills (client communication, public speaking, ability to explain the law to lay people), skills for service delivery (marketing and outreach, dealing with feedback and accountability) and will gain understanding of the legal needs of a particular client group and how to respond professionally.
LAAM36 Human Rights of Children

This module focuses on children's human rights. It will examine how children's interests are safeguarded in international human rights law, and how these are enforced in the system of international human rights. The module will adopt a thematic approach to discuss the challenge of implementing children's human rights at a national level, with a focus on State responsibility, incorporation or embedding children's human rights through law and policy, a Children's Rights Approach, children's participation in policy development, Children's Rights Impact Assessment, and accountability for children's rights. The emphasis in this module is on developing students' understanding of children's human rights and mechanisms to realise those rights in practice through law and policy,
