DESCRIPTION

Carding has been a hot topic in the media in recent months; however, this is just one of many intersecting issues for the rights of youth when it comes to policing and public space. Join our expert panel as they explore key questions, including:

  • What rights do young people have to access and enjoy public space undisturbed?
  • How are these legal rights actually experienced on a day-to-day basis
  • Which youth are most affected by policing practices?
  • What are the key housing challenges for youth?
  • How can lawyers help with making young people’s rights real?


Don’t miss our keynote speaker, Desmond Cole, journalist, activist and author of Toronto Life article “The Skin I’m In: I’ve been interrogated by police more than 50 times – all because I’m black”.
