Supernatural Restorative Justice
Ms Williams-Davidson will be providing a different take on restorative justice for the 10th Annual Campagnolo Lecture. Her lecture will bring together the multiple areas in which she works (law, writing, visual arts, music, environmental justice, Haida language and culture preservation). All of these endeavours are incorporated in her approach to Restorative Justice, with many lessons for a diverse community in how Restorative Justice can be applied across many fields. Her presentation will primarily focus on her work in the areas of law and music. As an Honourary Director of Ecojustice and the recipient of the Andrew Thompson Award for environmental advocacy, her presentation will be of special interest to those who are active in the environmental movement. As one of the Canadian Bar Association’s Top 25 Influential Lawyers, her presentation will be special interest to the legal community.
