In the next three forums presented by the Australian Centre for Democracy and Justice we will explore the how the law enhances and restricts democracy.

The first of these forums will focus on the rights of activists with Anthony Kelly from Peace Brigades International.


It is legal and illegal to do and what recourse you have within the law to protect our rights to protest and engage in acts of civil disobedience.
We will explore the changing environment and the threat of terrorism. How free are we to organise, move and associate? When should these liberties be restricted? When is it legitimate to disrupt a workplace or public space?
