SUMMARY:Black Internationalism and International Criminal Justice
DESCRIPTION:Black Internationalism and International Criminal Justice\nIn-person event\n  \nWhat are the possibilities of international criminal justice being informed by epistemologies that emerged from Black and African intellectuals’ historical engagement with the concept of ‘justice’? This paper responds with an intervention rooted in Black internationalism focusing on Pan-Africanist thinkers. The goals are threefold. \nFirst\, it tentatively presents ways to take Black intellectuals seriously as progenitors of ‘justice’ that should inform\, agitate\, and expand the concept within international law. Second\, the paper analysed how the architecture of international criminal justice and its primary actors (mis)align with those imaginaries of justice and its myriad approaches and visions. Finally\, the paper concludes by offering a remapping and reimagining of justice and its emancipatory impulse through these expansive intellectual historiographies. \nAbout the speaker\nDr Yassin Brunger (Queen’s University Belfast) \nYassin Brunger is Lecturer in Human Rights Law at Queen’s University\, Belfast and a Fellow of Senator George J Mitchell Institute for Global Peace\, Security\, and Justice. She is currently a Visiting Fellow at the IILAH (University of Melbourne) completing a book project entitled Narratives of Justice: The Relationship between the International Criminal Court and the UN Security Council (contracted with Cambridge University Press). \n————————–\nTuesday 16 May 2023\nTime: 1-2pm AEST\nVenue: TBA\nCPD Points: 1 \n————————–\nThis event is hosted by the Sydney Centre for International Law at The University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Research launch | Let's talk about confidentiality: NDA use in sexual harassment settlements
DESCRIPTION:Research launch | Let’s talk about confidentiality: NDA use in sexual harassment settlements\nIn-person event \nJoin us for the launch of research by our first Social Justice Pratitioners in Residence (SJPIR) (jointly held by Sharmilla Bargon of Redfern Legal Centre and Regina Featherstone of the Human Rights Law Centre). \nAfter joining the law school in August 2023\, Regina and Sharmilla set out to investigate the impacts of the Respect@Work Report around non-disclosure agreement (NDA) use in workplace sexual harassment disputes. They have produced a research report on the prevalence of NDA use and heard from lawyers and barristers on their experiences with NDAs of all shapes and sizes in settlement negotiations. This report also examines the rise of defamation responses to sexual harassment complaints and considers contractual enforceability of NDA terms. While legislative reform is one model to approach regulating NDA use\, their report considers lawyers’ professional obligations as a largely unexplored avenue for reform. \n  \nWednesday 6 March\, 5.30-7.30pm AEDT\nVenue: New Law Building (F10)\, Level 2\, Law Foyer\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by Sydney Law School at the University of Sydney.

SUMMARY:Responding to repression and strengthening human rights systems | In conversation with Human Rights Watch's Tirana Hassan
DESCRIPTION:Responding to Repression and Strengthening Human Rights Systems | In conversation with Human Rights Watch’s Tirana Hassan\nIn-person event \nThe last few years have seen extensive human rights suppression and wartime atrocities. Selective government outrage and transactional diplomacy has carried profound costs for the rights of those not in on the deal. The drivers of these human rights crises and their consequences often transcend borders and cannot be solved by governments acting alone. Understanding and responding to these threats needs to be rooted in universal principles of international human rights and the rule of law. These ideas built on shared human histories agreed upon by nations across all regions 75 years ago in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights\, the basis for all contemporary human rights conventions and treaties. \nThis foundation is needed now more than ever. But this very system we rely on to protect the human rights of people everywhere is under threat. Every time a government overlooks or rejects these universal and globally accepted principles\, someone pays a price – in freedoms and liberties\, in their health or livelihood\, and at times their lives. Australia grapples with the far-reaching arm of transnational repression while at the same time it chooses to sacrifice human rights in the name of military alliances\, enabling autocrats\, particularly across the Southeast Asia region\, to erode the independence of key institutions vital for protecting human rights. \nThese topics will be traversed in a conversation between Human Rights Watch’s Executive Director Tirana Hassan\, and the University of Sydney’s Ben Saul. \nAbout the speakers:\nTirana Hassan is Executive Director at Human Rights Watch\, one of the world’s leading international human rights organizations\, which operates in more than 90 countries and has over 500 staff members. \nTirana specializes in human rights protection in conflicts and crises. Prior to becoming Human Rights Watch’s Executive Director\, Tirana served as director of Amnesty International’s Crisis Response Program and served on the organization’s interim executive team. Between 2010-2015\, Tirana worked as a senior researcher in Human Rights Watch’s Emergencies Division. She has worked with various non-governmental organizations including Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)\, the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) and Save the Children. Tirana was a founding member of a refugee legal service in Australia in the early 2000s. \nShe has carried out and lead teams of investigations in the Middle East\, South and Southeast Asia\, as well as East and West Africa. She has authored reports and op-eds for major publications worldwide. \nTirana graduated with honors degrees in both social work and law in Australia and holds a master’s in international human rights law from Oxford University. \nModerator \nProfessor Ben Saul is Challis Chair of International Law at The University of Sydney and the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms while Countering Terrorism. \nFriday 12 April\, 12.30-2pm AEDT\nVenue: Level 4\, Common Room\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \nCPD Points: 1.5 \nThis event is proudly presented by the Sydney Centre for International Law at The University of Sydney Law School and Human Rights Watch.
