Justin Winchester
Biography
Justin holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree (with distinctions in Economics and Law) and a Bachelor of Laws degree from the University of Cape Town (UCT). While at UCT, Justin was an active student leader and represented UCT nationally and internationally in moot court and debating competitions respectively. South African by birth, Lebanese by heritage, and queer by luck, Justin is empowered by his families – biological and chosen – to create the just and loving world they have taught him to envision. Fascinated by the public-private divide and the intersection of economics and law, he intends to focus his postgraduate law studies at Oxford on the role that private persons can play in the achievement of economic justice and substantive equality in South Africa.
