We hope to learn from one another’s knowledge and experiences to enhance our understanding of and responses to this urgent national issue. Our aim is to start a dialogue between community organisations and researchers that may lead to mutually beneficial research and practice collaborations. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesday 6 November\, 2024\n\n\n\nTime: Program will be released closer to the dateVenue:  Sydney Law School\, Level 1\, New Law Building Annexe (F10A)\, Eastern Avenue\, University of Sydney\, Camperdown campusCPD points = tbc \n\n\n\nProgram \n\n\n\nClick here to view a copy of the final program (updated 4/11/24). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\nComplimentary\, however registration is essential.Register here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis conference is hosted by the University of Sydney Law School. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence | Lunchtime Event 2024 \n\n\n\nPlease note: Registration for the conference includes the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence lunchtime event. \n\n\n\nIf you would like to register for the lunchtime event only\, register here.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact: If you have questions\, please email: Associate Professor Helen Paterson: helen.paterson@sydney.edu.au \n\n\n\nThis conference is hosted by the University of Sydney Law School.

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 â€˜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 â€˜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:Â New Law Building (F10)\, University of Sydney (Camperdown Campus)\nRoom to be confirmed\n\nRegistrationÂ \n\nGeneral Attendee fullÂ 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.

SUMMARY:Call for abstracts: Intersections of Private Law
DESCRIPTION:Call for abstracts: Intersections of Private Law\nA biennial colloquium at the University of Sydney Law School.\n\n\nSydney Law School is pleased to announce the third Intersections of Private Law Colloquium to be held in-person on 5-6 April 2024. 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. Abstracts should be no more than 500 words long. The due date for abstracts is 5 February 2024\, although earlier submissions are welcome. Submissions from early career researchers and full drafts are warmly encouraged. \nWe will send notification of acceptance no later than 19 February 2024. We are happy to distribute any full drafts that we receive two weeks before the Colloquium. \nThere will be a small registration fee for confirmed participants to cover catering costs. There is a separate modest price for the colloquium dinner\, which will be held on 5 April 2024. \nYours sincerely \nOrganisers of the third Intersections of Private Law Colloquium \n  \nThis event is proudly presented by Sydney Law School at the University of Sydney.

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 â€˜Restoration Law and Finance Conference’ on Thursday and Friday\, 7 & 8Â December 2023. \nThe Australian Federal Government has committed to â€˜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 â€˜beyond biodiversity conservation to a â€œnature positiveâ€ 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 FitzSimonsÂ (Associate Director\, Pollination); Carolyn Hall (CEO and Managing Director\, The Mulloon Institute);Â Dr Ken HenryÂ (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);Â Stephen Murphy (Conservation Partners); Claire Smith (Partner\, Clayton Utz);Â Professor Ben Richardson (University of Tasmania Law School); James Trezise (Biodiversity Conservation Council); Laura Waterford (Director\, Pollination);Â 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:Â 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: LegalÂ accelerantsÂ 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) .Â In order to limit global warming to 1.5Â°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 2.8Â°C temperature rise by 2100.Â In a time when we should be accelerating our efforts\, we backslide.Â  \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.Â  \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.Â  \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)\,Â Arjuna Dibley (Sustainable Finance Hub\, University of Melbourne)\, Dominique Hogan-Doran SC (5 Wentworth)\, Tim Stephens (University of Sydney)\, Zoe Whitton (Pollination) andÂ Rachel Walmsley (Environmental Defenders’ Office). \nDraft schedule\n8.30amÂ Registration \n9.00am:Â Welcome and opening remarks \n9.15am: Legal acceleration and the role of climate litigation \nSpeakers:Â Dominique Hogan-Doran SC (5 Wentworth)\,Â David Barnden (Equity Generation Lawyers) andÂ Zoe Bush (Environmental Defenders Office) \n10.30am: Morning tea \n11amÂ Climate finance and accelerated climate action \nSpeakers:Â Arjuna Dibley (Sustainable Finance Hub\, University of Melbourne)\,Â Gareth Bryant (University of Sydney) and Kate Owens (ACCEL) \n12.30pmÂ Lunch \n1.30pmÂ Â Nature restoration and the acceleration agenda \nSpeakers: Gerry Bates (University of Sydney)\,Â Emma Carmody (Restore Blue)\,Â Rachel Walmsley (Environmental Defenders’ Office)\, Rachel Killean (Chair\, University of Sydney) \n3.00pmÂ Afternoon tea \n3.30pmÂ Climate change and the Law of the Sea \nSpeakers: Ian Fry (Special Rapporteur)\, Tim Stephens (University of Sydney)\,Â Â Frances Anggadi (University of Wollongong) and Chester Brown (Chair\, University of Sydney)â€‚â€‚ \n5.00pmÂ Cocktail reception \n5.30pmÂ 2023 ACCEL Distinguished Speaker Address: Human rights\, climate justice and the UN Acceleration Agenda \nRegistration – now open\n\nFullÂ day: $100\nPanel DiscussionsÂ 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:Â 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.

She is CoDirector of the Sydney Institute of Criminology. \nCarolyn is recognised for her research into technologies in justice\, specifically her empirical research into prisoners’ experiences of accessing justice from a custodial situation by audio visual links\, published in her monograph\,The Pixelated Prisoner: Prison video links\, court â€˜appearance’ and the justice matrix (2018)Â Routledge. During the period July 2021 – June 2024\, Carolyn will undertake her ARC Discovery Early Career Research Award (DECRA) ‘The Digital Criminal Justice Project: Vulnerability and the Digital Subject’. \nCarolyn serves on the NSW Bar Association Innovation & Technology Committee and served on the 2019 NSW Law Society Legal Technologies Committee. She has been a Visiting Scholar at the Centre for Socio-Legal Studies\, University of Oxford 2019 and for 3 months at the OÃ±ati International Institute for the Sociology of Law\, Spain 2013-14. Carolyn has previously consulted on anti-dumping trade disputes and indirect taxation\, working in both Sydney and Tokyo\, and she also has a digital media/visual arts practice. \n\n\nThis webinar will be released on Thursday 29 June\, 2023. \nFind out more about the series.

SUMMARY:Non-consensual sexual offence law reform in Western Australia
DESCRIPTION:2023 Criminal Law CPD Series:\nNon-consensual sexual offence law reform in Western Australia\nSubstantive Law\nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nThe Attorney-General of Western Australia has asked that State’s Law Reform Commission to review Western Australia’s sexual offence laws. On 23 December 2022\, the Commission published a Discussion Paper that deals with\, among other things\, the law relating to sexual consent and the operation of honest and reasonable mistake of fact in non-consensual sexual offence proceedings. This seminar will consider the various reform options. It will particularly focus on how the law should define â€˜consent’; vitiating circumstances such as mistakes and threats; and the circumstances in which the honest and reasonable mistake of fact excuse should be available to a person accused of non-consensual sexual offending. There will be some discussion of recent law reform activity in this area in other Australian jurisdictions – most notably\, New South Wales\, Queensland and Victoria. \nPresenter \nDr Andrew DyerÂ is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Sydney Law School and has been a Director of the Sydney Institute of Criminology since 1 January 2021. His research concerns criminal law and human rights law and the relationship between them. \n\n\nThis webinar will be released on Thursday 27 April\, 2023. \nFind out more about the series.

SUMMARY:9th Frontiers in Environmental Law Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:9th Frontiers in Environmental Law Colloquium\nThis colloquium will be held on 16-17 February at The University of Sydney Law School \nThe annual Frontiers in Environmental Law Colloquium provides a forum for environmental law academics and practitioners to share and discuss their experiences\, research\, and teaching practices. \nThrough this forum\, we aim to: \n\nFoster a supportive and inclusive network of like-minded individuals;\nExplore innovative environmental law ideas and insights within and beyond our discipline;\nContribute meaningfully to the future of environmental law in our region;\nShare approaches to teaching and learning in environmental law; and\nAssist environmental law academics to actively build their careers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nColloquium Theme for 2023: \nA Half Century of Environmental Law: Where to From Here? \nThis year marks fifty years since the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment was held in Stockholm\, a conference that led to the creation of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the first international instrument to broadly recognise the dependency of humans on the natural world\, the Stockholm Convention. Over the past fifty years\, we have\nwitnessed the maturity of environmental law as a discipline\, as major multilateral agreements including the Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Biodiversity Convention\, as well as\nthe Rio Principles have shaped domestic environmental laws around the world\, and a body of scholarship has concurrently developed. \nAs we enter the second half of environmental law’s first century\, we are facing an extinction crisis that is being exacerbated by a climate crisis. Australia is particularly vulnerable to the impacts as we struggle to adapt to major species losses and frequent extreme weather events. The urgency of this situation has prompted an increasing volume of litigation\, both in Australia and abroad\, and calls to reform environmental and climate laws that are not working. We invite you to reflect with us on the relevancy of environmental law’s pioneering sentiments today\, in light of what is needed to secure a stable future. \nProgram \nClick here to view the program (updated on 8/2/23) \nRegistration \nFull fee: $100 per person\nDinner (optional) – on Day 1\, Thu 16 February\, 6pm at Thai Pathong\, Newtown: $50 \nRegister here. \nVenue \nSydney Law School\, New Law Building (room tbc)\nThe University of Sydney \nNearby hotels \nLocal hotels to University campus\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis conference is hosted by the University ofÂ Sydney Law School.

SUMMARY:Myths\, Misconceptions and Mixed Messages: An Early Look at the New Tendency and Coincidence Evidence Provisions
DESCRIPTION:2022-23 Criminal Law CPD Series:\nMyths\, Misconceptions and Mixed Messages: An Early Look at the New Tendency and Coincidence Evidence Provisions\nSubstantive Law\nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nFollowing the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse\, Uniform Evidence Law jurisdictions are implementing reforms to the tendency and coincidence evidence provisions. These reforms aim to relax the exclusionary rules so that the prosecution can more readily rely upon other allegations against the defendant and the defendant’s prior guilty pleas. The reforms purport to address the traditional misconception that such evidence would lack probative value unless the defendant’s other misconduct shares distinctive similarities with the charged offence. The reforms can be expected to increase the rate of successful prosecutions. However\, these benefits are likely to be compromised by the reforms’ unnecessary complexity. Rather than improve understanding of the inferential value of other misconduct evidence\, the reforms may sow confusion\, wasting court resources\, and creating associated costs for complainants\, defendants\, and other participants. \nThis seminar will follow the argument presented in Professor Hamer’s article of the same title\, which appeared inÂ (2021) 45(4)Â Criminal Law JournalÂ 232. \nPresenter \nDavid HamerÂ is a Professor at the University of Sydney Law School. He 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. David’s 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. \n\n\nRegistration\nFull series (7 webinars) = $300\nIndividual webinar(s) = $50 \n\nCLICK HERE to register \nThis webinar will be released on 19 January 2023.\n \nYou will receive a webinar link on this date\, and can also register at a later date to catch up in your own time.Â   \n\nAbout the series\nThe 2022-23 Criminal Law CPD series\, presented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology is an innovative educational program made up of 7 recorded webinars delivered by eminent speakers from the University of Sydney and the legal profession. \nA new webinar will be released each month from September 2022 – March 2023.

SUMMARY:The Living Law of Wikipedia
DESCRIPTION:The Living Law of Wikipedia\nIn-person event\n  \nWikipedia offers (yet) another example of a scheme of ‘private ordering’\, regulation and governance that works largely outside of state law. Its institutions and procedures show strong resemblances to those found in legal systems generally. Â But what may distinguish Wikipedia ( or what some Wikipedians claim does so) is the frequent discursive insistence on the risks of taking rules seriously and the dangers of what they call ‘Wikilawering’. \nIn this talk\, Professor Nelken will seek to explore why this is so and what it means in actual practice\, also with reference to a various ‘trouble cases’ as illustrations. \nAbout the speaker:\nDavid Nelken is Professor of Comparative and Transnational Law\, and former Head of Research\, at the Dickson Poon Law School\, King’s College\, London.Â Professor Nelken’s research focuses on theoretical enquiry and empirical investigation in the areas of comparative sociology of law\, criminology\, and legal and social theory.Â HeÂ taught law at Cambridge\, Edinburgh and University College\, London\, from 1976-1989 before moving to Italy in 1990 as Distinguished Professor of Legal Institutions and Social Change at the University of Macerata. From 1995 to 2013 he was also Distinguished Research Professor of Law at Cardiff University\, and from 2010 to 2014 Visiting Professor of Criminology at Oxford University. He is also a Fellow of the UK Academy of Social Sciences. On the editorial board of numerous journals\, he is also a member of the Independent Board of the SCOPUS (Elsevier) Database of peer-reviewed literature\, where he is responsible for evaluating all law journals worldwide. He was a Panel member of Scottish Children’s Hearings juvenile justice system 1979-1983\, aÂ memberÂ of Italian Regional Crime committees in the 1990’s and\, amongst many visiting appointments\, was the Global Law professor at Tilburg University\, the Netherlands\, for 2014. \n\nTuesday 21 February 2023\nTime: 1-2pm AEDTÂ (Light lunch from 12.30pm)\nVenue: New Law Building (F10)\, Level 4\, Common Room\, University of Sydney (Camperdown campus)\nCPD Points: 1\n  \nThis event is proudly hosted byÂ The University of Sydney Law School.Â

SUMMARY:LGBTQ organising in the new protest environment - book launch and panel discussion
DESCRIPTION:Book launch and panel discussion: LGBTQ organising in the new protest environment\nIn-person event \nThe use of public space for recreation and protest remains hotly contested\, as reactions to anti-protest legislation in NSW and other Australian jurisdictions show. 2023 marks a decade since a case of police excessive force at the 2013 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras went viral on YouTube. That case marked a watershed moment in police-LGBTQ community relations in NSW\, and was part of a global awakening about the power of bystander video distributed through social media. \nDr Justin Ellis’ 2021 monograph Policing Legitimacy: Social media\, scandal and sexual citizenship critically engages with that case and considers the relationship between digital media\, LGBTQ identity-based rights claims and police accountability. This book launch and panel discussion provides a timely opportunity to consider how LGBTQ individuals and communities will organise in the face of increased penalties for peaceful public protest in NSW\, and unease about police use of platform biometrics and related issues of privacy and consent. The launch of Dr Ellis’ monograph will be followed by a discussion on these issues chaired by Institute of Criminology co-director Dr Carolyn McKay\, and between Professor Kane Race\, Dr Justin Ellis and Mr Josh Pallas – president of the NSW Council for Civil Liberties. Please join us for this timely and important discussion. \nAbout the author \nDr Justin Ellis is a senior lecturer in criminology at the Newcastle Law School and the editor-in-chief of Current Issues in Criminal Justice\, the journal of the Institute of Criminology at the Sydney Law School. His research examines the relationship between digital media technologies\, institutional trust and politically vulnerable populations\, LGBTQ in particular. His scholarship on these issues is regularly published in high-ranking internationally peer-reviewed journals and in media commentary. \n>>>>>>>>>>>> \nTuesday 28 February 2023\, 6pm (AEDT)\nVenue:Â University of Sydney\, Level 4\, Common Room\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThis event is presented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology at Sydney Law School. \n

SUMMARY:Beyond Punishment Seminar: Transforming rehabilitation through digital technology
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Punishment Seminar: Transforming rehabilitation through digital technology\nIn-person event \n\n\nInstitutions of criminal justice are not isolated from broader trends in society – and developments in the application of technologies in prisons have made it important to reconsider the role of digital technologies in rehabilitation. \nWhat is the role of digital technologies in the context of the rehabilitative aim of prisons? What ought it to be? How is this role likely to develop in the future? And what challenges need to be borne in mind when answering these questions? \nThese issues will be the focus of the Beyond Punishment Seminar: Transforming Rehabilitation Through Digital Technology\, which is hosted by the Sydney Institute of Criminology in conjunction with Corrective Services NSW at the Sydney Law School. \nA good first step is to assess the current state of play regarding potentially rehabilitative technologies in prisons. The seminar will examine the roll-out of android tablet devices in NSW prisons and the impacts on family visits\, health services and education of people in prison\, especially since the Covid-19 prison lockdowns\, and it will also examine how the devices can be used to deliver effective programs of rehabilitation. \nHow are tablet devices employed in prison? Do they lead to greater participation in rehabilitation or mean that people in prison socially withdraw? Can android devices address reintegration back into society and minimise issues of digital illiteracy? Is this an initiative that can ultimately decrease re-offending rates? \nTechnologies are never politically neutral and often raise ethical issues that need to be considered\, particularly in the context of criminal justice’s rehabilitative aims and this seminar will aim to consider these ethical issues and to try to answer some of the questions raised above. \n\n\n\n\nOur panel will be moderated by: \nDr Carolyn McKay\, Sydney Institute of Criminology\, Co-Director \nCarolyn is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Sydney Law School where she teaches Criminal Law\, Civil & Criminal Procedure and Digital Criminology. She is Co-Director of the Sydney Institute of Criminology. Carolyn is recognised for her research into technologies in justice\, specifically her empirical research into prisoners’ experiences of accessing justice from a custodial situation by audio visual links\, published in her monograph\, â€˜The Pixelated Prisoner: Prison video links\, court â€˜appearance’ and the justice matrix‘ (2018). \nPanel Members: \nLuke Grant\, Deputy Commissioner\, Corrections Strategy and Governance\, Corrective Services NSW \nLuke joined Corrective Services NSW in the 1991 and held a number of executive positions prior to his appointment as Assistant Commissioner Inmate Management in 2000. He has worked at the coalface in the areas of inmate classification\, offender rehabilitation programs and services and inmate education. Luke was appointed to the role of Deputy Commissioner Corrections Strategy and Policy in 2020 and Deputy Commissioner of Strategy and Governance in 2022. In this role Mr Grant leads the development of Corrective Services strategy\, policies\, and practice as well as overseeing the interaction with partner organisations and service providers. \nRenee Van Aaken\, Acting Director – Reducing Recidivism (Premiers Priority) at Department of Communities and Justice \nRenee is an experienced leader in the Criminal Justice sector\, with extensive and diverse experience including being operational in prisons\, senior management\, and strategic areas. Renee is passionate about making a difference\, for people impacted by the criminal justice system and those working within what is a very challenging environment. She is driven to implement change effectively and is currently focused on several projects supporting the Premier’s Priority to Reduce Recidivism. A new and exciting area interest for Renee is Correctional Technology\, leading the development and implementation of a business case for a $40m program to transform prisoner rehabilitation through technology in CSNSW. \nSteven Van De Steene\,Â Smart Corrections \nSteven is an Enterprise Architect specialised in technology in corrections. He works as a consultant in innovation and digital strategies for prisons and probation services.

SUMMARY:Conflict-of-norms in the information society: national security and cross-border data flow
DESCRIPTION:Conflict-of-norms in the information society: national security and cross-border data flow\nOnline event \nNational security has increasingly become a concern for cross-border data flow. In this panel discussion\, we will survey the conflicts and potential collaboration between protecting national security and enhancing digital trade. Our distinguished panel will cover relevant laws and practices in big (the US and China)\, medium (the UK)\, and small (Vietnam and Taiwan) jurisdictions. \nSpeakers\n\nProfessor Anupam ChanderÂ (Professor\, Georgetown University)\n\nTrump v. TikTok:Â How a Chinese big tech platform defeated the President of the United States\, and why that’s important for free expression \nWhen then-President Donald Trump sought to ban TikTok\, ostensibly because of its Chinese roots\, US courts came to TikTok’s rescue. Rather than deferring to the president’s claims of a national security emergency justifying the ban\, courts held that the president lacked statutory authority to ban TikTok. This talk will explain why\, and what was at stake in this struggle. \n\nMs. Nguyen Ha (Visiting Scholar Harvard University\, Research & Teaching Associate Monash University)\n\nConflicting cybersecurity norms in Vietnam: the borrowing of local actors \nAs scholars grapple with the complexity of international cybersecurity\, the Socialist Republic of Vietnam offers a surprisingly rich snapshot of cybersecurity norms in the global arena. This talk discusses the Vietnamese cybersecurity regime that has been shaped by local actors\, who borrowed conflicting cybersecurity norms from international laws and trade agreements. \n\nDr. Phoebe LiÂ (Reader\, Sussex University)\n\nHow national security is shaping digital sovereignty: the cases of middle power countries \nEconomic security has been a main driver for countries to develop digital and data sovereignty in order to protection national security. This talk will discuss the comparative efforts of the UK government in developing an AI strategy after leaving the EU and how the Taiwanese National Security Law has been strengthened by the recent law reform in trade secrets protection. \n  \nModerators/commentators\nâ€¢Â Dr.Â Han-Wei LiuÂ (Senior Lecturer\, Monash University) \nâ€¢Â Dr. Jie (Jeanne) HuangÂ (Associate Professor Sydney University\, Visiting Scholar Harvard University) \n  \n__________________________________ \nFriday 3 March\, 11am-12pm AEDT (Thursday 2 March\, 7-8pm EST)\nThis event is being heldÂ  online.Â  \n__________________________________ \nThis event is presented by the Sydney Centre for Asian and Pacific Law at the University of Sydney and Private International Law\, Monash University\, and Law & Technology interest groups of the American Society of International Law.

SUMMARY:Development of the Common Law by Analogy to Statute
DESCRIPTION:Ross Parsons Centre Law and Business seminar: Development of the common law by analogy to statute\nIn-person event \nIn recent decades the importance of statute within Australian law has increased enormously. Legislation has proliferated in size\, number and scope; and many of these statutes contain underlying policies\, values and ideas which the common law is capable of taking cognisance of. This gives rise to the question addressed by Adam Waldman and Michael Gvozdenovic in this face-to-face presentation: can the common law develop by analogy to statute? \nPart I of the presentation will consider how attitudes across the common law world have shifted towards recognising a stronger interrelationship between statute and the common law. This has paved the way for the recognition of analogical reasoning to statute in Australia. \nPart II will examine the High Court’s jurisprudence on this form of judicial reasoning. It will closely examine the authorities that have explicitly discussed it\, which appear to have left the legitimacy of such reasoning open. It will then identify numerous High Court cases which have developed the common law by analogy to statute\, albeit often without explicitly recognising that they are doing so. Considered together\, these cases demonstrate that such reasoning must be legitimate in Australia. \nPart III will then compare this Australian jurisprudence to that of the United States\, which is the jurisdiction in which such reasoning was first pioneered. It will consider whether the American jurisprudence supports the legitimacy of this reasoning\, and what lessons might be drawn from it. \nSpeakers \nAdam Waldman\, Colin Phegan Associate Lecturer\, Sydney Law School \nMichael Gvozdenovic\, Herbert Smith Freehills and Adjunct Senior Lecturer\, Sydney Law School \nCommentator \nHon Justice Mark Leeming\, New South Wales Court of Appeal\, Challis Lecturer in Equity\, Sydney Law School \nChair \nDr Jason Harris\, Professor of Corporate Law\, Sydney Law School \n>>>>>>>>>>>> \nMonday 6 March\, 2023\nTime:Â 6-7pm \nVenue: The University of Sydney\, Level 1\, Law Lounge\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown \nCPD Points:Â 1 \nThis event is being held in-person at Sydney Law School. \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nThis event is proudly presented by theÂ Ross Parsons CentreÂ at Sydney Law School. \n

SUMMARY:The Work of the Mental Health Review Tribunal
DESCRIPTION:2022-23 Criminal Law CPD Series:\nThe Work of the Mental Health Review Tribunal\nProfessional Skills\nCPD Points: 1.5 \nAbout \nBalancing the competing priorities of offenders with mental health diagnoses\, the community\, and the criminal justice system more broadly\, is complicated. At the intersection of those interests sits the Mental Health Review Tribunal. The Tribunal endeavours to acknowledge and respect the dignity\, autonomy\, diversity and individuality of those whose matters it hears and determines. But how are these outcomes achieved? What are the characteristics of those best-practice features in a rapidly developing criminal justice system? – especially as it grapples with growing rates of mental illness and more complex mental health questions.Â District Court Judge and President of the Mental Health Review Tribunal Paul Lakatos SC considers these questions\, as well as theÂ balancing of priorities between the criminal justice system and the health system as a point of focus that is rapidly taking on greater importance and\, indeed\, engaging more resources. This presentation will assist legal practitioners practising criminal law with an interest in mental health\, as well as those practitioners with a lived experience of mental health. \nPresenter \nJudge Paul Lakatos SC commenced his professional career working as a solicitor for the Aboriginal Legal Service in 1977. He continued his work in the Sydney metropolitan area representing indigent clients with the Public Solicitor’s Office from 1978. In 1982 Judge Lakatos SC led a team of investigators including the AFP\, ATO investigators and forensic accountants\, investigating bottom of the harbour tax schemes at the Special Prosecutors Office. In 1984 he was admitted as a Barrister\, practising in Criminal Law; Administrative Law; Appellate Law; Coronial inquiries and before ICAC and the Police Integrity Commission – and as counsel assisting ICAC and the State Coroner. In 2005\, Judge Lakatos was appointed as senior counsel and\, in 2008\, was appointed as a Judge of the District Court of NSW. Judge Paul Lakatos SC commenced as the President of the Mental Health Review Tribunal in 2019\, where he oversees its functions. He also sits on Tribunal hearings in both forensic and civil jurisdictions. Most recently\, he was appointed an ICAC Commissioner.
