Canadian Institute for the Administration of Justice October Conference in Calgary

The Canadian Institute for the Administration of Justice (CIAJ) is holding its next annual conference in Calgary from October 10th to 12th, 2012.

The conference theme is The Courts and Beyond: The Architecture of Justice in Transition:

"Changes in the administration of justice pose challenges for the role of the Courts as the traditional guardians and determiners of fundamental rights, CIAJ’s annual conference will consider the impact of these changes as to access to and the cost of justice, the ability of the Courts to adapt and respond, adequate accountability and transparency mechanisms and the necessity of broader structural approaches or legislative steps. The conference will be of interest to members of the legal profession, the judiciary, administrative agencies, arbitrators, mediators, government policy-makers, media and the public."
