“EU nationals’ vulnerability in the context of Brexit: the case of Polish nationals”
Sara joined University College Dublin (UCD), Sutherland School of Law, as an Assistant Professor in December 2019. Previously, she was a Lecturer in Employment Law at the University of Southampton Law School, UK and the founding Director of the Stefan Cross Research Centre for Women, Equality and Law (2018-19).
Her research focuses on discrimination and employment law (at EU and comparative levels). She is particularly interested in avenues to improve the effectiveness of equality law through a range of regulatory tools like equality bodies, positive duties, ADR, and collective remedies. Her current research projects concern the analysis of pay transparency regulations to address the gender pay gap and EU policies to address hate speech.

2022 Centenary Project
The UCD Center for the Common Law in Europe is planning a major project to mark the centenary of the founding of the State. We envisage holding workshops and a conference which lead to an edited collection of essays on the development of the common law in this jurisdiction in the last 100 years. This project offers scope for contributions from across UCD as well as for international co- authorship as the evolution of post-colonial common law attracts attention in other jurisdictions
