Professor Michael Adams.
Book in these times for UNE International Comparative Law Symposium 29th November 2-5:30pm main forum and 6-8pm for the junior forum.
Professor Michael Adams and Dr Ying Ching are hosting the Symposium. There are so many highlights and facinating presentations that cover so much ground.
“We live in a great big world where lots of countries do things very differently, so we have to distinguish between the legal systems and use these to inform our own.” Professor Michael Adams says this will be the premise of the upcoming UNE International Comparative Law Symposium being held this Monday, where academics from around the world will explore how the world’s societies operate, and what we can learn from this. Thanks to the rise of the internet, information about the globe’s legal systems is available at just the click of a button, and it’s something Professor Adams thinks has the potential to improve how our laws and policies are created.
Dr Ying Chen
In the presentation: Is the next pandemic we face going to be one of hunger? The right to food seems like it should be a given, but UNE’s Dr Ying Chen says panic buying and the long-term impacts of COVID-19 have turned this concept on its head. Dr Chen is one of the speakers at the upcoming UNE International Comparative Law Symposium this Monday, and she’ll discuss what the pandemic has taught us about our access to food, and the real possibility of a global crisis if action is not taken soon.
Additionally, there are presentations ranging from AI and Law; Access to Food; Stalking and Law; International Trade; Restorative Justice; Political Cartoons and Law; and much much more.
To hear all this and other presentations from renowned academics from universities across the world, tune into this free Zoom event from 2pm this Monday 29 November.
Hello,
No doubt you’ve noticed this already, but of course it’s ‘comparative’ not ‘comparitive.’
Kind regards,

Thank you, Ben.
