Human rights advocate David Manne tackles one of the most complicated and contentious geopolitical issues of our time. Drawing on recent examples, he examines the ever-increasing tension between government policy and the law. He examines what can be done to better protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of every individual, whether citizen or not – and the consequences if we fail to protect these rights.
David Manne, human rights lawyer and Executive Director of the Refugee and Immigration Legal Centre (RILC) has campaigned to protect the rights of refugees and asylum seekers for almost 20 years. He will present Refugees, the rule of law and the ethics of protection to a full house, 11 September.
