Event about:
Indigenous Legal Judgments seminar
Join us for this online panel focusing on the Indigenous Legal Judgments book and hear from the editors of this exciting collection, Associate Professor Nicole Watson (USyd) and Professor Heather Douglas (UniMelb), and contributing author, Mary Spiers-Williams (ANU).
The book represents a unique contribution by Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars who have re-imagined significant legal decisions affecting Indigenous Australians and illustrated how judgments can challenge systemic racism and work to counter the dehumanisation of Indigenous peoples through legal storytelling.
The theme for Reconciliation Week in 2022 is ‘Be Brave. Make Change’ - this showcase is relevant for law and justice academics, legal practitioners, policy-makers and community partners.
Hosted by the Canberra Law School, University of Canberra, the ACT Law Society and the Melbourne Law School, University of Melbourne.

We wish to acknowledge and respect their continuing culture and the contribution they make to the life of Canberra and the region. We also acknowledge all other First Nations Peoples on whose lands we gather.
