In conversation: improving the treatment of sexual assault survivors

Presented by ANU College of Law

Join the Hon Helen Murrell SC, former ACT Chief Justice, and Katrina Marson, former ACT Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions Senior Prosecutor (Sexual Offences Unit), researcher and author, in conversation about the treatment of survivors of sexual assault in the judicial system in the ACT. Recent high-profile court cases have sparked a renewed energy for reckoning with the reality of institutional and systemic failures survivors face in navigating the courts and seeking justice.

The ANU Visiting Judges program, Law Reform and Social Justice (LRSJ), and the Gender Institute bring together some of the jurisdiction's peak judicial experts to shape pathways to reforms that can better protect survivors and deliver just outcomes.
