Call for Papers: 2023 Regional Conference Series

The Bar Association invites members to submit suggestions for papers to be included in the Association's 2023 Regional CPD Conference series.

The conferences will be held on Saturdays in Ballina, Newcastle, Orange, and Sydney during February and March. The Newcastle, North Coast, and Orange conferences will be held in person only. The Sydney conference will host a limited number of in-person attendees while simultaneously being live-streamed to a virtual audience at home or in chambers.

The dates for the 2023 Conferences are:

• Saturday 11 March 2023 Sydney Hyatt Regency Sydney
• Saturday 18 March 2023 Orange Greenhouse of Orange

Interested barristers, solicitors, academics, and non-legal professionals are invited to submit suggestions for papers online. During submission, you will be asked to provide your contact details, conference preference, a working title and, where possible, a short description or abstract of your presentation. All submissions must come under at least one of the four categories of CPD: Ethics and Professional Responsibility; Practice Management and Business Skills; Substantive Law, Practice and Procedure, and Evidence; Barristers' Skills.

Suggestions are requested today Friday, 7 October 2022. To submit a paper, please click here.

All proposals will be assessed, and successful submitters will be contacted at the end of November. Conference registration, accommodation and other information will be posted on the conference webpage in early December. For any enquiries, please contact Tiffany McDonald at cpd@nswbar.asn.au.
