About
Lawyer Jennifer Robinson has worked on some of the world’s most high-profile and controversial free speech cases. In this unmissable Keynote Session, she'll discuss challenges to free speech in Australia and globally. She'll cover issues such as protecting women’s rights to free speech and speak to about gender-based violence, as explored in her book, How Many More Women. Robinson’s high-profile cases include Julian Assange and WikiLeaks, leading to securing his freedom and return to Australia earlier this year; Amber Heard in the UK defamation proceedings brought by Johnny Depp against The Sun newspaper; and acting for journalists and human rights defenders who are imprisoned and targeted for their work as well as advocating for the families of journalists killed in conflict zones. Following her Keynote, Jennifer Robinson will be in conversation with Narelda Jacobs.
