Richard Cooper Memorial Lecture

The 2014 Richard Cooper Memorial Lecture will be held on Thursday 27 November 2014. This year, the lecture will be delivered by Dr Christopher Ward on the topic International Law and the South China Sea: Atolls and Arbitrations.

The Richard Cooper Memorial Lecture series, a joint initiative of the Federal Court and the University of Queensland, was established in 2005 in honour of the late Justice Richard Cooper of the Federal Court of Australia (and formerly of the Supreme Court of Queensland). It is dedicated to the interest he developed in maritime and native title law issues during the course of his long and distinguished legal career.

The lecture will be held at the Federal Court in Sydney and broadcast live to the Federal Court in each of Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
