LexisNexis
Fifth Annual Conference of the International Society of Public Law (ICONS)
Themed of "Identity, Security, Democracy: Challenges for Public Law"
The conference lasted 3 days during which a range of key pressing issues were handled - i.e. diversity, identity and human rights; courts and democratization; and technology and public law. Apart from the scholarly sessions as above, other functions were also included - i.e. the ceremony to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the HKU Faculty of Law. Our firm proactively sponsored the conference to promote the awareness of LexisNexis at HKU and the public law titles.
