The Kirby Seminar Series began on 23 March, 2001 with the inaugural seminar presented by Justice Michael Kirby of the High Court of Australia entitled, The Future of Human Rights.

The purpose of the series is to stimulate and share ideas for, and the substance of, legal scholarship through attracting high calibre national and international speakers, drawing upon academics from the wider university community and offering a platform for researchers (including PhD students) from within the UNE School of Law.

The series is conducted by the School of Law Research Committee and is convened by Mark Lunney who can be contacted for more information on mlunney@une.edu.au.
