SUMMARY:Law & Sustainability Conference
DESCRIPTION:SMU-Sydney-HKU Law & Sustainability ConferenceLaw\, Sustainability\, and Development: Transforming Pathways in the Asia Pacific Region\nIn-person event \nSydney Law School is delighted to announce that it will host the SMU-Sydney-HKU Law & Sustainability Conference at the University of Sydney on July 11-12\, 2024. \nAbout this event \nThe Asia Pacific region is at a critical point in its pathway to sustainability and faces significant challenges. These include achieving net zero emissions by mid-century\, transitioning to cleaner energy in a manner that is just\, progressing toward a ‘circular economy’\, ensuring that supply chains remain resilient\, and safeguarding human rights. \nA significant part of the global supply chain is located in the region\, which is growing and urbanising rapidly. Improving access to employment and promoting economic growth\, as well as accelerating progress towards responsible consumption and production\, are important priorities. Meanwhile climate change and biodiversity loss pose major threats. Addressing these concerns will require rethinking development pathways\, and embracing transformative change. \nThe United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) offer a framework for addressing economic\, social\, and environmental sustainability challenges. These goals include eliminating hunger and extreme poverty\, reducing diseases\, reducing inequality\, improving water management and energy\, and tackling climate change urgently. Progress on all 17 goals is ‘alarmingly slow’\, however\, according to the UN’s Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP\, 2024). Without significant progress\, the SDGs will not be achieved until 2062: some 32 years behind schedule. \nView the program here. \n____________\nThursday 11 – Friday 12 July 2024\nVenue: New Law Building (F10)\, University of Sydney (Camperdown Campus)\nRoom to be confirmed\n\nRegistration \n\nGeneral Attendee full conference fee (2 day attendance): $200\nStudent/Alumni full conference fee (2 day attendance): $140\n1 day attendance: $120\nSpeaker attendance: (2 day attendance): $140\nDinner ticket: (Thursday 11 July): $80\n\n\n____________ \nThis event is proudly presented by the Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law\, Centre for Asian and Pacific Law and the Ross Parsons Centre at Sydney Law School at the University of Sydney.

We are delighted to invite you to submit an abstract for the Colloquium. \nLast held in 2019 before the pandemic\, Intersections of Private Law is a colloquium series that aims to explore the boundaries\, overlaps and complementary operation of fields of private law with each other and externally. There is much to be explored and discussed in how different fields of private law interact with each other – for example\, contract law with tort or equitable principles\, tort with unjust enrichment – and with other fields of law\, such as criminal law\, corporate law and public law. Even within one field of private law\, there are overlaps and distinctions to be drawn or eradicated – for example\, in tort law\, trespass and nuisance\, intentional wrongdoing and negligence. Interdisciplinary perspectives provide another source of intersection. The Intersections of Private Law colloquium series provides an opportunity for scholars from Australia and overseas to explore these and other overlaps and distinctions within and at the boundaries of private law. \nThe following invited speakers will participate in the Colloquium: \n\nMatthew Dyson\, Professor of Civil and Criminal Law\, Faculty of Law\, University of Oxford;\nJodi Gardner\, Brian Coote Chair in Private Law\, Faculty of Law\, University of Auckland;\nDonal Nolan\, Professor of Private Law\, Faculty of Law\, University of Oxford.\n\nAbstracts should be submitted by email to intersectionsofprivatelaw@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Restoration Law and Finance Conference: Legal and Financial Obstacles to Rehabilitation\, Rehydration and Regeneration of Land and Water and Options for Reform
DESCRIPTION:Restoration Law and Finance Conference: Legal and Financial Obstacles to Rehabilitation\, Rehydration and Regeneration of Land and Water and Options for Reform\nIn-person event \n  \nThe Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law at Sydney Law School invites you to Australia’s inaugural ‘Restoration Law and Finance Conference’ on Thursday and Friday\, 7 & 8 December 2023. \nThe Australian Federal Government has committed to ‘preventing\, halting and reversing the loss of nature’ by signing up to The United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration\, publishing the Nature Positive Plan (2022) and introducing the Nature Market Repair Bill (2023). As stated in the recently released Independent Review of the NSW Biodiversity Act 2016\, chaired by Ken Henry\, it is time to move ‘beyond biodiversity conservation to a “nature positive” framing that emphasises the need to repair past damage and to take urgent action to halt and reverse biodiversity loss\, putting nature on a path to recovery\, so that thriving ecosystems can support future generations’. \nTo achieve this\, legal and financial barriers to restoration need to be addressed urgently. \nThrough a series of keynotes\, presentations and panel discussions\, the conference will bring together a diverse range of speakers\, including Indigenous experts\, lawyers\, investors\, restoration practitioners and government officials to discuss the legal and financial barriers to restoring nature across a range of land tenures\, and workable solutions to address these issues. Federal initiatives for nature positive repair are unlikely to succeed unless these challenges are confronted head on. \nSpeakers include: Dr Justine Bell-James (Associate Professor\, University of Queensland Law School); Dr Gerry Bates (University of Sydney); Dr Louise Camenzuli (Partner\, Corrs Chambers Westgarth); Dr Emma Carmody (Restore Blue); Rohan Clarke (Regen Farmers Mutual); Raeleen Draper (Senior Natural Environment Project Officer (Blue Heart)\, Sunshine Coast Council); Veda FitzSimons (Associate Director\, Pollination); Carolyn Hall (CEO and Managing Director\, The Mulloon Institute); Dr Ken Henry (Economist\, Non-Executive Director of the Australian Securities Exchange\, Cape York Partnership and Accounting for Nature Ltd.); Fiachra Kearney (Forever Wild); Stella Kondylas (The Nature Conservancy); Jock Mackenzie (EarthWatch); Grantley Smith (Restore Blue); Heidi Mippy (Noongar and This-Man-Warriyangka woman\, Curtin University); Associate Professor Brad Moggridge (University of Canberra); Stephen Murphy (Conservation Partners); Claire Smith (Partner\, Clayton Utz); Professor Ben Richardson (University of Tasmania Law School); James Trezise (Biodiversity Conservation Council); Laura Waterford (Director\, Pollination); Cassandra Stevens (Director\, Kullilli Bulloo River Aboriginal Corporation) \n  \nView the program and read speaker bios here (Updated 7 December 2023) \n  \nThursday 7 – Friday 8 December 2023\nVenue: Law Foyer\, Level 2\, New Law Building (F10)\, University of Sydney\, Camperdown campus \n  \nThis event is hosted by the Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law (ACCEL) at Sydney Law School and is proudly supported by Mills Oakley.

SUMMARY:ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address and Panel Discussions: Legal accelerants for climate action: taking stock for COP28
DESCRIPTION:ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address and Panel Discussions: Legal accelerants for climate action: taking stock for COP28\nIn-person event \nClimate action is more urgent than ever. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has reached its highest point in at least two million years\, and climate change is causing widespread\, and unequal\, adverse impacts on nature and people (IPCC\, 2023) . In order to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels and prevent the worst impacts\, developed countries must reach net zero by 2040\, and emerging economies by 2050. Despite this\, current policies will lead to a 2.8°C temperature rise by 2100. In a time when we should be accelerating our efforts\, we backslide.  \nIn November\, leaders will gather at COP28 for the first global stocktake of the Paris Agreement. The process for preparing the next cycle of Nationally Determined Contributions will also be launched.  \nThis event will bring together leading researchers and professionals ahead of the COP to provide insights on how to conceptualise\, develop and implement legal and governance tools to accelerate deep decarbonisation\, adaptation and address loss and damage\, on a whole of economy basis. Against the backdrop of the UN’s 2023 Acceleration Agenda\, experts will discuss the various dimensions of legal acceleration to ensure a more equitable transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient global economy. \nThe 2023 ACCEL Distinguished Address will be delivered by Dr Ian Fry\, Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights in the context of climate change. Dr Fry will discuss important human rights and justice dimensions of the UN’s Acceleration Agenda\, including the need to integrate human rights standards and principles into accelerated climate action.  \nThe Distinguished Address will be supported by a series of panels in which leading experts will discuss the role and potential of legal accelerants in the context of climate finance\, climate litigation\, law and nature and the law of the sea. Speakers include Frances Anggadi (University of Wollongong)\, David Barnden (Equity Generation Lawyers)\, Gareth Bryant (University of Sydney)\, Zoe Bush (Environmental Defenders Office)\, Emma Carmody (Restore Blue)\, Arjuna Dibley (Sustainable Finance Hub\, University of Melbourne)\, Dominique Hogan-Doran SC (5 Wentworth)\, Tim Stephens (University of Sydney)\, Zoe Whitton (Pollination) and Rachel Walmsley (Environmental Defenders’ Office). \nDraft schedule\n8.30am Registration \n9.00am: Welcome and opening remarks \n9.15am: Legal acceleration and the role of climate litigation \nSpeakers: Dominique Hogan-Doran SC (5 Wentworth)\, David Barnden (Equity Generation Lawyers) and Zoe Bush (Environmental Defenders Office) \n10.30am: Morning tea \n11am Climate finance and accelerated climate action \nSpeakers: Arjuna Dibley (Sustainable Finance Hub\, University of Melbourne)\, Gareth Bryant (University of Sydney) and Kate Owens (ACCEL) \n12.30pm Lunch \n1.30pm  Nature restoration and the acceleration agenda \nSpeakers: Gerry Bates (University of Sydney)\, Emma Carmody (Restore Blue)\, Rachel Walmsley (Environmental Defenders’ Office)\, Rachel Killean (Chair\, University of Sydney) \n3.00pm Afternoon tea \n3.30pm Climate change and the Law of the Sea \nSpeakers: Ian Fry (Special Rapporteur)\, Tim Stephens (University of Sydney)\,  Frances Anggadi (University of Wollongong) and Chester Brown (Chair\, University of Sydney)   \n5.00pm Cocktail reception \n5.30pm 2023 ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address: Human rights\, climate justice and the UN Acceleration Agenda \nRegistration – now open\n\nFull day: $100\nPanel Discussions only: $70\n2023 ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address: $40\n\nStudent rates\n\nFull day: $50\nPanel Discussions only: $35\n2023 ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address: $20\n\nTuesday 31 October 2023\nVenue: Law Lounge\, Level 1\, New Law Building Annex (F10A) \n  \nThis event is hosted by the Australian Centre for Climate and Environmental Law (ACCEL) at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:The Charles Perkins Centre Annual Lecture 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Charles Perkins Centre Annual Lecture 2023Public health sovereignty and public reason: A comparative perspective\nIn-person event \nYou are warmly invited to the Charles Perkins Centre Annual Lecture 2023 presented by visiting scholar Professor Sheila Jasanoff\, the Pforzheimer Professor of Science and Technology Studies at the Harvard Kennedy School. \nDrawing on varied policy responses to the Covid-19 pandemic\, Professor Jasanoff argues that national health policies reflect underlying social compacts regarding the mutual obligations of citizens\, experts\, and the state. This approach helps make sense of wide divergences in measures taken by states worldwide to combat Covid-19 and ensure recovery. \nThis talk challenges conventional understandings of modernity as the product of two trajectories that sustain each other and improve human futures: one of advances in science and technology and the other of social progress. Progress is here imagined as always in-the-making\, riding on the wings of scientific enlightenment. There is no room for backsliding in this view\, only the horizon of greater emancipation. \nBut what if this idea of modernity is itself an imaginary overlaid on less tidy epistemic and political commitments? What if\, instead of perfection through knowledge and reason\, modernity is a patchwork of opaque delegations whereby control over minds\, bodies\, and nature’s workings is handed over to experts with quasi-sovereign power to regulate their respective domains? Empirically exploring these questions provides insights into contemporary debates on populism and loss of trust in science. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nWednesday 2 August\, 2023\nTime: 5.30-7pm AEST \nLocation: University of Sydney Camperdown campus: Venue to be confirmed \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThis event is proudly co-presented by Sydney Law School and the Charles Perkins Centre.

SUMMARY:Book launch: Comparing Online Legal Education
DESCRIPTION:Book launch: Comparing Online Legal Education \nIn-person event \nThe University of Sydney Law School is delighted to invite you to the launch of Comparing Online Legal Education\, co-edited by Professor Luke Nottage\, Sydney Law School\, for the International Academy of Comparative Law. \nThe book will be launched by The Hon. Andrew Bell\, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of NSW\, and previously part-time lecturer at Sydney Law School. \nAbout Comparing Online Legal Education \nThis pioneering work by leading comparative lawyers examines developments in online legal education\, particularly in universities but also in professional associations\, before and especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. \nThe book posits and largely confirms that transformations are linked to the extent and scope of respective legal professions (often\, but not always\, correlating to common versus civil law traditions)\, funding and other aspects of university-level education\, and information and communications technology infrastructure in each jurisdiction. It charts the dramatic shift to online legal education in almost all jurisdictions even with different levels of COVID-19 infections and deaths\, or mobility restrictions imposed by law and/or social norms. It also details how law teachers and students adapted to the challenges and opportunities of new technologies and practices\, sometimes benefitting from serendipitous earlier events supporting online legal education\, and a considerable ‘reversion to the mean’ as the pandemic has abated. \nThe special reports incorporate extensive empirical data\, including surveys on online legal education experiences. They cover 13 jurisdictions across the Asia-Pacific region (Australia\, Canada\, Brunei\, Malaysia\, Singapore\, Hong Kong\, Macao\, Japan and Pakistan)\, Europe and beyond (Croatia\, Cyprus\, Italy and Seychelles)\, ranging from micro-states to very large economies\, at various stages of economic development and from different legal traditions. Comparing Online Legal Education provides rich resources and lessons for legal academics and professionals\, as well as those involved in education policy. \nFind out more about the book and order it online here.  \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThursday 3 August 2023\nTime: 5.30-6.30pm (Cocktail reception to follow book launch) \nVenue: Level 1\, Law Lounge\, New Law Building Annex (F10A) \nThis event is being held in-person at Sydney Law School. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \n\n\nAbout the editors \nLuke Nottage (PhD VUW\, LLD Kyoto) is Professor of Comparative and Transnational Business Law at the University of Sydney\, Associate Director of its Centre for Asian and Pacific Law (CAPLUS) and founding Co-Director of the Australian Network for Japanese Law (ANJeL). He is Honorary Professor at the University of Wollongong\, Special Counsel with Williams Trade Law and a titular member of the International Academy of Comparative Law.

SUMMARY:2023 Wingarra Djuraliyin: Public Lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law
DESCRIPTION:2023 Wingarra Djuraliyin: Public Lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law\nSydney Law School is proud to host the annual Wingarra Djuraliyin public lecture\, which showcases Indigenous perspectives on law. \nThe Council of Australian Law Deans in 2020 expressed its commitment to a legal system free of systemic discrimination and structural bias against First Nations peoples – this commitment applies to legal education institutions.  \nThe recent public lecture by Dr Eddie Cubillo addressed this topic\, which is of considerable public interest including within the legal academy.  \nWe acknowledge the courage of Dr Eddie Cubillo to address the impact on First Nations Peoples. \nSince the delivery of the lecture\, the University has been informed of ongoing legal issues\, which currently prevent the lecture recording being available for distribution. \nIn-person event \n\n\nSydney Law School is proud to host the annual Wingarra Djuraliyin public lecture\, which showcases Indigenous perspectives on law. \nIn 2023\, the lecture is “One more broken silence: an Indigenous academic encounters racism in the law school 2023”\, delivered by Dr Eddie Cubillo (University of Melbourne Law School). \nThis event is being held to mark the International Day of the World’s Indigenous People\, which is celebrated annually on 9 August. \n2023 Lecture \nOne more broken silence: an Indigenous academic encounters racism in the law school  \nIn this lecture\, I question why despite being white-qualified\, having done an LLB\, LLM\, PhD\, I am only seen as ‘the culture guy’ and only respected enough to do ‘smoking and acknowledgements’\, why myself and other Blak academics continue to be subjected to casual and pervasive racisms as an everyday occurrence\, and why some of our most prestigious academic institutions continue to be complicit in perpetrating and condoning racism despite all the rhetoric about standing for equity and justice. \nIn 2015\, Wiradjuri man Stan Grant challenged Australians to consider that ‘The Australian Dream is rooted in racism…the very foundation of the dream’. Recently\, as Australia tracks towards a referendum on a First Nations Voice to Parliament that 80% of Indigenous people support\, non-Indigenous author Richard Flanagan challenges us to ‘confront th[e] most terrible truth…[that] racism experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people…is of a completely different order…far more extreme…[and] so pervasive as to often be invisible to non-Indigenous Australians’. \nThe toxicity of the academy and whether it’s safe for Indigenous staff and students needs to be confronted. It needs to be highlighted that they often are not. First Nations academics often ask each other if it’s all worthwhile. As a country\, we need to acknowledge that the places settlers/non-Indigenous Australians have built for themselves were established by\,  and  are sustained by\, racial violence. Institutions  can be  unrelenting  in  their  viciousness towards sovereign Black bodies\,  and this viciousness includes the silence of colleagues\, their privilege and their ‘unconscious biases’. As Richard Flanagan acknowledges ‘Spend some real time with Aboriginal people and you’ll see how they are still made to live in another country\, and it is frequently a cruel\, pitiless and brutally destructive world.‘ \nSo why am I still here? Why do I\, and other Blak academics continue to subject ourselves to the viciousness and racial violence? For the same reason I call it out in this lecture – As a proud Larrakia\, Wadjigan and Central Arrernte man I put up with the racism because of what I hear constantly from our people on the front-line advocating and delivering services trying their best in a racist world. If I can educate future leaders to respect my people\, I will. My ancestors and elders have faced adversity\, so that I can achieve\, it’s my turn. \n  \nWednesday 9 August\, 6-7.30pm\nCPD points =1.5 \n\n\n\n\nAbout the speaker \nDr Eddie Cubillo is a Larrakia\, Wadjigan and Central Arrente man from the Northern Territory. \nHe is a long time advocate for Indigenous rights and is currently Associate Dean (Indigenous Programs) & Director of the Indigenous Law and Justice Hub at the University of Melbourne’s Law School\, were he has his sights on the decolonisation of legal education and supporting graduates to work towards First Nations Justice. \nEddie’s other past roles include Anti-Discrimination Commissioner of the Northern Territory\, Executive Officer of the National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Legal Service (NATSILS) and Director of Community Engagement in the Royal Commission into the Protection and Detention of Children in the Northern Territory. \nEddie has been a former Chair of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC) Yilli Rreung Regional Council\, the North Australian Aboriginal Justice Agency (NAAJA) and the Aboriginal Justice Advisory Committee and is currently on the Law Council of Australia’s – Indigenous Legal Issues Committee\, National OPCAT Advisory Group\, Justice Policy Partnership (JPP) under the National Agreement on Closing the Gap\, and the Victorian Treaty Authority Panel. \n\n\n\n\nCatch up on the 2022 lecture \nIn 2022\, the Wingarra Djuraliyin lecture was presented by Professor Anne Poelina and Marlikka Perdrisat\, who spoke on the topic of ‘First Law: A Climate Chance’. \nWatch here \nThis event is presented by the University of Sydney Law School in collaboration with the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Indigenous Strategy and Services) at the University of Sydney.

SUMMARY:The Life and Death of States: Author Meets Readers
DESCRIPTION:The Life and Death of States: Author Meets Readers\nIn-person event \nNatasha Wheatley’s bold new book The Life and Death of States: Central Europe and the Transformation of Modern Sovereignty (Princeton University Press 2023) rediscovers the multinational Habsburg polity as a hothouse for ideas that still shape our understanding of the sovereign state. The radical mismatch between theories of singular sovereignty and the empire’s plural\, layered legal order pushed politicians as well as scholars like Hans Kelsen toward bold new conceptions of the state and the nature of law. The book follows a recurring set of questions about the juridical birth\, death\, and survival of states through the creative experiments of Austro-Hungarian constitutional order and into the domain of international law following the empire’s collapse in 1918. These ideas would echo around the globe in the era of global decolonization that followed the Second World War\, suggesting new ways of understanding Central Europe in the world. \nAbout the speakers\n\nNatasha Wheatley is an historian of modern European and international history\, with broad interests in intellectual and legal history\, Central Europe\, and the history of international law. She was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Sydney before joining the Princeton faculty as an assistant professor in 2017. She is the co-editor of the volumes Power and Time and Remaking Central Europe\, and her writing has appeared in Past & Present\, History and Theory\, Law and History Review\, and the London Review of Books\, among other places. The Life and Death of States is her first book.\nProfessor Lisa Ford is the prize-winning author of three monographs: Settler Sovereignty: Jurisdiction and Indigenous People in America and Australia\, 1788-1836 (Harvard UP\, 2010); Rage for Order: The British Empire and the Origins of International Law\, 1800-1850 (Harvard UP\, 2016)\, co-authored with Professor Lauren Benton; and The King’s Peace: Law and Order in the British Empire (Harvard UP\, 2021). She recently co-edited The Cambridge Legal History of Australia (Cambridge UP\, 2022). Her current project\, on emergency in the British Empire is funded by an Australian Research Council Future Fellowship.\nProfessor Lea Ypi is Professor in Political Theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science and an Honorary Professor in Philosophy at the Australian National University.

SUMMARY:Can we accommodate independent legal representation for complainants of sexual violence in an adversarial system?
DESCRIPTION:Can we accommodate independent legal representation for complainants of sexual violence in an adversarial system?\nIn-person event \n\n\n\n\n“The legitimate rights of the accused should be protected and fulfilled. So too the rights of the community.” - VLRC\, 2021 \nAustralia has not been immune from calls to strengthen its criminal justice system\, with a series of inquiries over the past seven years considering matters affecting complainants of sexual violence. Despite relying on victims to report crime and cooperate so that the state may prosecute\, the mistreatment of victims remains a subject of academic criticism. \nIndependent legal representation has surfaced as a major factor in reducing secondary victimisation and attrition. While often positioned as solely in the interests of the victim\, it can support the state’s prosecution efforts and lead to improved substantive justice outcomes. \nOn behalf of With You We Can\, this event co-ordinates advocates\, lawyers and academics to discuss models of independent legal representation for victims abroad\, and how we might apply similar principles in Australia. The discussion will be preceded by a short screening of Suzie Miller’s Prima Facie\, a powerful tool to create more developed understanding of our justice system in these contexts. \nSpeakers will be consulting victimologist Michael O’Connell AM APM\, who served as the inaugural Commissioner for Victims’ Rights\, Associate Professor Kerstin Braun\, who teaches criminal law and procedure in the School of Law and Justice at the University of Southern Queensland\, Eleanor Danks\, an advocate who went through the legal system as a survivor of intimate partner sexual violence while working at the Victorian Office of Public Prosecutions\, and Sarah Rosenberg\, Director and Co-Founder of With you We Can. \n*With You We Can is a victim-led organisation pulling together victims\, advocates and experts to demystify the police and legal processes while working to improve them. \nProgram\n12.30-1.30pm Screening of Suzie Miller’s film Prima Facie \n1.30-2.30pm Panel discussion \n  \nFriday 18 August 2023\, 12.30-2.30pm AEST\nVenue: Level 1\, Law Lounge\, New Law Building Annex (F10A)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \nCPD Points: 2 \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology The University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Meet the author | Reimagining Desistance from Male-Perpetrated Intimate Partner Violence: The role and experiences of female victims-survivors
DESCRIPTION:Meet the author | Reimagining Desistance from Male-Perpetrated Intimate Partner Violence: The role and experiences of female victims-survivors\nHybrid event \nDespite decades of research\, our understanding of IPV desistance processes is very limited. In particular\, understanding of the mechanisms that may account for why some men ‘stop’ abusing their partners and others persist\, is under-developed. Because IPV occurs within a dyadic and domestic context\, women who are subjected to IPV are not only in a unique position to observe their partner’s behaviours (and how they change over time)\, but also to implement strategies to initiate and support their partner’s desistance. \nThis study involved semi-structured interviews with 40 female victims-survivors of male-perpetrated IPV\, 15 of whom had experienced the cessation or reduction of abuse perpetrated against them for a period of six months or longer. Focusing on the period where participants relationships with abusers were still intact\, the analysis found that victims-survivors were highly agentic actors who implemented a range of strategies to both mitigate their day-to-day risk of violence and support their partners’ long-term behavioural changes. Even in situations where the violence did not stop entirely\, the strategies participants implemented were important for inhibiting escalating patterns of violence and abuse within their relationship. Although their understanding of abusers’ thought processes and motivations was limited by contextual awareness\, participants’ narratives suggested that desistance would not have occurred\, but for their actions. \n\nAbout the author\nDr Hayley Boxall is a criminologist who has been undertaking research on domestic and family violence (including intimate partner violence) and sexual violence for over 10 years. She has published extensively on these topics\, and been a primary investigator on a number of projects focused on criminal justice responses to DFV\, pathways/trajectories into DFV offending and intimate partner femicide\, offending and reoffending patterns of DFV perpetrators and the exploring the nature and prevalence of different forms of DFV and sexual violence. Since 2020 Hayley has been the Manager of the Australian Institute of Criminology’s Violence against Women and Children Research Program\, and is a Course Convenor at the University of Sydney and Griffith University. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThursday 24 August 2023\nTime: 6-7.15pm (Refreshments to be provided) \nVenue: Level 1\, Law Lounge\, New Law Building Annex (F10A) \nCPD points: 1.25 \nThis event is being held in-person and online at Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Julius Stone Address: What is political progress?
DESCRIPTION:Julius Stone Address: What is political progress?\nIn-person event\n  \nProgress is both a necessary and a dangerous idea. It is necessary if one is striving to improve the way things are\, and it is dangerous because the pursuit of progress has historically often given rise to episodes of paternalism\, colonial domination and narratives of civilizational superiority. In my talk\, I will present some first thoughts on how to defend a more critical account of progress. I will start by distinguishing between moral and political progress\, then explore the relation between political progress and justice. I will suggest that we make political progress not when we approximate an ideal of justice that is always already known to us\, but when the political institutions we construct reflect what we learn from the trials and failures of the past. \nAbout the speaker\nProfessor Lea Ypi \nLea Ypi is Professor in Political Theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science and an Honorary Professor in Philosophy at the Australian National University. A native of Albania\, she has degrees in Philosophy and in Literature from the University of Rome La Sapienza\, a PhD from the European University Institute and was a Post-Doctoral Prize Research Fellow at Nuffield College\, Oxford University. She is the author of Global Justice and Avant-Garde Political Agency\, The Meaning of Partisanship (with Jonathan White)\, and The Architectonic of Reason. Her latest book\, a philosophical memoir entitled Free: Coming of Age at the End of History\, won the 2022 Royal Society of Literature Ondaatje Prize and the Slightly Foxed First Biography Prize and is being translated into more than twenty languages. Her academic work has been recognised with the British Academy Prize for Excellence in Political Science and the Leverhulme Prize for Outstanding Research Achievement. She coedits The Journal of Political Philosophy and occasionally writes for The Guardian. \n  \nTuesday 29 August\, 2023\nTime: 6-7.30pm \nVenue: Lecture Theatre 101\, Level 1\, New Law Building Annex (F10A) \n  \nThis event is hosted by the Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney Law School. \nThe Julius Stone Address is generously sponsored by the Educational Heritage Foundation. It is named to commemorate the life and work of Professor Julius Stone\, Australia’s foremost legal philosopher and for many years Challis Professor of International Law and Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney.

SUMMARY:JSI Seminar | Beyond Indigenous Cultural & Intellectual Property: opportunities in law reform for Aboriginal-led medicines in Australia and the limitations of legal pluralism
DESCRIPTION:JSI Seminar | Beyond Indigenous Cultural & Intellectual Property: opportunities in law reform for Aboriginal-led medicines in Australia and the limitations of legal pluralism\nIn-person event \nAustralian regulators and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples have the opportunity to co-design a cross-jurisdictional framework that ensures structural integrity and cultural ethics\, which embodies international law principles and standards. However\, the Australian intellectual property regime and regulatory framework for traditional medicines is not fit for purpose. Equally\, the tension between Australia’s settler state and unceded Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples remains constrained by legal pluralism\, western concepts of Indigeneity and biocultural knowledge and truth-telling. \nAbout the speaker:\nDr Virginia Marshall \nDr Marshall is a Research Fellow based at the Australian National University’s School of Regulation and Global Governance (RegNet). She is a practising lawyer and leading legal scholar with expertise in Aboriginal water rights\, native title rights in Sea Country\, Indigenous governance and the intersection of Traditional Knowledge systems and western intellectual property regimes\, especially as it relates to Indigenous commercialisation of traditional medicines. \nVirginia holds various government appointments including serving on the Climate Change Authority Board\, Deputy Co-Chair of the Committee on Aboriginal Water Interests and the Drafting Group for the National Water Initiative Mark 2 and regularly invited on expert roundtables relating to water policy reform. Virginia serves on the ANU Human Ethics Research Committee\, the inaugural Māori Research and Ethics Council and Chair of the ANU Indigenous Research Advisory Group. Virginia is a Co-Chair of the ANU Institute for Climate\, Energy & Disaster Solutions Indigenous peoples\, cultures and knowledges research cluster and is a Research Associate and Board member of ANU’s Australian Studies Institute. \n  \nThursday 14 September 2023\, 6-7.30pm AEST\nVenue: Level 4\, Common Room\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \nCPD Points: 1.5 \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by the Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence at The University of Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Criminalising Children: Should we raise the age of criminal responsibility?
DESCRIPTION:Criminalising Children: Should we raise the age of criminal responsibility?\nIn-person event \nRecently\, the Northern Territory became the first Australian jurisdiction to raise the minimum age of criminal responsibility from 10 to 12 years. In New South Wales\, and other Australian jurisdictions\, the minimum age remains 10\, which is one of the lowest minimum ages of criminal responsibility in the world. That is\, while a child under the age of 10 cannot be convicted of a criminal offence\, and while a child aged between 10 and 14 is likewise presumed to be doli incapax\, this presumption can be rebutted by the prosecution on the evidence. \nBut is the age of 10 too young to criminalise any child? What harms accrue to incarcerated children? \nThere are many arguments in favour of ‘raising the age’ to minimise the criminalisation of children. First\, there is the alarming over-representation of Indigenous children in detention. Second\, raising the age of criminal responsibility would recognise the fact that children are in a period of neurodevelopmental immaturity. Third\, the younger a child is when first encountering the criminal justice system\, the more likely they are to re-offend as an adult. Fourth\, the great prevalence of mental health disorders and cognitive disabilities amongst young people in the criminal justice system\, compared with the general youth population\, highlights a vulnerability that would be better addressed outside the criminal justice system. Finally\, incarcerated children are deprived of the family\, friends\, education\, health\, cultural and sporting opportunities that most of us take for granted. \nGiven the significant momentum for raising the age of criminal responsibility following the Northern Territory’s decision\, this panel will examine whether other Australian jurisdictions should do the same ­- or raise the age even higher. \nAbout the panel discussion\nTo continue the dialogue around raising the age of criminal responsibility\, the Sydney Institute of Criminology is hosting a panel of academics and legal professionals. \nIntroductions: Dr Carolyn McKay (Co-Director\, Sydney Institute of Criminology) \nChairperson: Professor Megan Williams (Principal of Yulang Indigenous Evaluation) \nProfessor Megan Williams is Wiradjuri through paternal family and has worked for over two decades advocating for the use of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s expertise in health service design and evaluation\, research\, ethics and university curriculum.

SUMMARY:Ross Parsons Corporations Law Lecture 2023: The responsibility of shareholders
DESCRIPTION:Ross Parsons Corporations Law Lecture 2023: The responsibility of shareholders\nIn-person event\n  \nIn 1911\, Justice Louis Brandeis argued that: \n‘…there is no such thing as an innocent purchaser of stocks. It is entirely contrary…to what ought to be our whole attitude towards investments\, that the person who has a chance for profit by going into an enterprise … should have the chance of gain without any responsibility’. \nThis lecture asks whether\, over a century later\, it is now time to revisit that proposition. The lecture will consider whether shareholders should bear responsibility for the actions of the companies in which they hold shares. If so\, is that just a moral responsibility\, or can it also have a legal dimension? And\, if legal\, should the law simply facilitate greater shareholder responsibility\, or should it be mandated? \nAbout the speaker\nEmeritus Professor Stephen Bottomley (ANU College of Law) \nEmeritus Professor of Commercial Law\, Stephen Bottomley is an expert in corporate law with particular emphasis on corporate governance. His main areas of research interest are corporate governance\, and law and regulation. He has also published in the areas of corporate theory\, corporate regulation and government-owned enterprises. \nHis 2008 book\, The Constitutional Corporation: Rethinking Corporate Governance was awarded the Hart Socio-Legal Book Prize for outstanding piece of socio-legal scholarship in the same year. Amongst his publications\, Stephen is the co-author of Contemporary Australian Corporate Law (2018\, Cambridge University Press)\, Law in Context (2011\, 4th edn\, Federation Press)\, and Directing the Top 500 – Corporate Governance and Accountability in Australian Companies (1993\, Allen and Unwin). Stephen’s article “The Notional Legislator: The Australian Securities and Investments Commission’s Role as a Law-Maker” (2011) 39 Federal Law Review 1\, was awarded the 2011 Zines Prize for Excellence in Legal Research. \nIn 2021 Stephen was awarded the inaugural Lifetime Achievement Legal Research Medal in the 2020 Australian Legal Research Awards. \nStephen was Dean of the ANU College of Law from 2013 to 2017\, prior to which he held positions as Head of School and Deputy Dean in the College. \nStephen is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Law and a former President of the Corporate Law Teachers Association (now the Society of Corporate Law Academics). \nCommentator: Rebecca Lim (Strategic Consultant\, Gilbert + Tobin and Practitioner-in-Residence\, Sydney Law School) \nRebecca is a strategic consultant at G&T in Sydney particularly in the areas of financial services\, digital\, ESG and Board advisory services.

SUMMARY:Advocacy in the Children's Court
DESCRIPTION:2023 Criminal Law CPD Series: Advocacy in the Children’s Court: Considerations for Criminal Matters Involving Children and Young Persons\n  \nEthics & Professional Responsibility \nProfessional Skills \nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nThe Children’s Court deals with a wide range of cases across NSW involving children and young people. In its criminal jurisdiction\, matters involve defendants under the age of 18 years. There are a number of complexities in the legislation as to how certain charges involving children and young persons proceed including considerations of doli incapax and whether the charges can remain at the summary level or whether they should be dealt with “at law” in a higher court. This presentation will discuss the issues around the age of criminal responsibility and the committal process in the Children’s Court. This presentation will assist lawyers practising criminal law who appear in the Children’s Court and provide perspectives from the bench\, prosecution\, and defence. \nPresenters \nJudge Ellen Skinner was admitted to the legal profession in 1999\, having graduated from the Australian National University in Arts and Law. Judge Skinner has served as Managing Solicitor at the Aboriginal Legal Service and worked at the ODPP and Legal Aid. Judge Skinner was appointed to the Bench in 2009 as a magistrate and was the youngest magistrate ever appointed in New South Wales. On 22 November 2021\, Judge Skinner was appointed as the President of the Children’s Court of NSW and a judge of the District Court. \nShannon Richards is a Solicitor Advocate at the NSW Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions. He has been practising law since 2003 and has worked in both commercial\, government and military legal environments. Shannon was previously a prosecutor with the Office of the Director of Military Prosecutions and joined the NSW Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions in 2015. He regularly appears in jury trials in the District Court and complex hearings in the Local Court and Children’s Court. Shannon appears in courts-martial and Defence Force Magistrate hearings on behalf of the prosecution and defence. \nJames Clifford is the Managing Solicitor of the Children’s Criminal Practice at the Aboriginal Legal Service (NSW/ACT)\, practicing primarily on Gadigal and Dharug land. He completed his studies at the University of Sydney before commencing private practice in criminal and employment law. Since commencing with the ALS in 2017\, he has represented Aboriginal young people extensively in the Youth Koori Court and mainstream courts. \n\n\nA recording of this webinar will be released on Thursday\, 28 September 2023. \nFind out more about the series.

SUMMARY:Probative Value and Admissibility in the Criminal Trial
DESCRIPTION:2023 Criminal Law CPD Series: Probative Value and Admissibility in the Criminal Trial: Focus and Holism\nSubstantive Law \nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nIn determining whether challenged evidence is admissible\, the trial judge is often required to assess its probative value. The orthodox view is that this assessment focuses on the strength of connection between the challenged evidence and the fact in issue. However\, a distinct strand of High Court jurisprudence\, running through the common law and the uniform evidence legislation – from Pfennig v The Queen (1995) 182 CLR 461 through Phillips v The Queen (2006) 225 CLR 303 to TL v The King (2022) 96 ALJR 1072 – requires a holistic approach to probative value. That is\, the trial judge should assess the contribution of the challenged evidence together with other evidence. The High Court’s occasional holism introduces incoherence and uncertainty into the law. The interventionism of this approach may be prompted by concern over the prejudicial risks of propensity evidence; however\, holism does not necessarily provide added protection. The High Court’s holism appears to be more the product of fallacious reasoning and inattention to the logic of proof. And it carries the risk that the trial judge\, at the admissibility stage\, will trespass on the jury’s fact-finding province. \nPresenter \nDavid Hamer is interested in the way criminal courts deal with evidence in determining whether to convict or acquit defendants. While often focusing on the detail of evidence law and criminal procedure\, he takes an interdisciplinary approach. His research has regard to both the psychology and the logic of proof and draws on empirical research and formal probabilistic models. Further\, his work explores how the pursuit of factual accuracy is affected by other sometimes competing concerns: efficiency\, fairness\, and the overarching need to provide a mechanism for settling disputes that retains public acceptance. \nA particular area of interest to David is the regulation of child sexual assault prosecutions. For various reasons\, these offences are inherently difficult to prove. Drawing on David’s work\, the recent Royal Commission recommended that the prosecution be able to place greater reliance on the accusations of other alleged victims to corroborate the complainant’s allegation. David’s work in this area is ongoing and he is contributing to the development of appropriate laws to implement this Royal Commission recommendation. \nAnother area of interest to David is wrongful convictions. Despite the rhetorical emphasis placed on avoiding this searing injustice\, they come to light quite regularly and there is good reason to believe that many more wrongful convictions are hidden from view. David is interested in the conceptual and methodological issues concerning definition and estimation of error rates. He researches the causes of wrongful convictions and how these should be addressed through law reform. He also focuses on obstacles to their correction and believes that a Criminal Cases Review Commission should be adopted as a crucial element of criminal justice infrastructure. \n\n\nRescheduled date: A recording of this webinar will be released on Thursday\, 28 September 2023. \nFind out more about the series.

SUMMARY:Ross Parsons Centre Law and Business seminar | Law Reform & The PPSA: Why We Should Delete s 267 and Corporations Act s 588FL
DESCRIPTION:Ross Parsons Centre Law and Business seminar | Law Reform & The PPSA: Why We Should Delete s 267 and Corporations Act s 588FL\nOnline event \nThe Government’s response to the Statutory Review of the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth) (‘PPSA’) has been released\, including an Exposure Draft containing its proposed amendments. We are currently within an eight-week consultation period closing on 17 November 2023\, which makes this an opportune time to discuss reforms to improve the operation of the PPSA. \nThis seminar concerns s 267 of the PPSA and s 588FL of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)\, which are termed the ‘vesting provisions’. The former provides that an unperfected security interest ‘vests in the grantor’ upon the occurrence of specified events indicating the grantor’s insolvency. The latter provides that\, where a security interest is perfected only by registration and the grantor is a company\, that security interest ‘vests in the company’ upon the occurrence of specified events indicating the company’s insolvency if the registration time is outside one of several time periods. Much of the debate concerning these provisions thus-far has focused on s 588FL due to its more stringent timing requirements\, and there seemed to be consensus that this provision is unnecessary and should be deleted. Surprisingly however\, the Government proposed retaining it in its recent response to the Statutory Review of the PPSA. \nIn this seminar I will take a step back from the debate specifically concerning s 588FL\, and consider the broader question of what the vesting provisions seek to achieve in the first place. First\, I will identify their commercial significance by considering when they lead to different outcomes than those which would occur anyway under other provisions of the PPSA. Secondly\, I will identify the purported policy objectives underlying the vesting provisions\, and argue that none of these sufficiently explain their operation. Thirdly\, I will identify the costs of retaining these provisions\, and argue that these cannot be satisfactorily addressed through more discrete amendments to their scope. This leads me to conclude that\, while it may at first appear to be a radical solution\, we should delete both s 267 and s 588FL. \nAbout the speakers \nAdam Waldman \nAdam Waldman is the Colin Phegan Associate Lecturer at the University of Sydney Law School.
