Professor Clare McGlynn KC (Hon)

Law Professor . Advisor . Commentator .

I am a Law Professor at Durham University and leading expert on violence against women and girls, particularly the legal regulation of pornography, image-based sexual abuse, cyberflashing, and online abuse. I advise governments, civil society organisations, and social media platforms, working closely with survivors to strengthen laws.


I serve on the Council of Europe’s Committee on Combating Technology-Facilitated Violence against Women, and on the UK’s Judicial Appointments Commission. I was
appointed an Honorary KC (King’s Counsel) in recognition of my work championing women’s equality in the legal profession and shaping new criminal laws on extreme pornography and image-based sexual abuse.

Advisor & Commentator

Advising and commenting across national and international press, mainstream media, social media platforms and UK Parliament.
