This second session of the 2023 Australian Human Rights Institute conference, Accountability in crisis: the rise of impunity as a challenge to human rights, explores the decline of accountability, and the methods employed to protect human rights both in Australia and internationally.

Unlike democratically-elected governments, businesses have unprecedented influence which raises the question of whether they should be taking the lead on issues of social significance. Are the media and social media complicit in the erosion of accountability or can they play a role in restoring political and public life? How can individuals and NGOs work together to enhance or recreate effective democratic institutions?
Speakers:

Justine Nolan (moderator), Director, Australian Human Rights Institute
Larissa Baldwin-Roberts, CEO, GetUp!
Brynn O'Brien, Executive Director, Australasian Centre for Corporate Responsibility (ACCR)
Lizzie O'Shea, Founder and Chair, Digital Rights Watch
Siobhan Toohill, Chief Sustainability Officer, Westpac
Christopher Warren, media correspondent, Crikey

Presented by the Australian Human Rights Institute, UNSW Sydney
