What are the Conversations?
Building on the tradition of the Law Oration, VLF’s In Conversation series brings you thought-provoking discussions with leading legal minds on the most pressing issues shaping our justice system.
Going beyond headlines, these conversations explore current challenges while uncovering the speaker’s unique perspectives and personal experiences in the law.
It’s a chance to gain rare insights into the critical issues and meet the people driving change in Victoria’s justice system.
