Called to the Bar Podcast Episode with Michael Kirby

On 20 May 2026, the Hon. Michael Kirby joined Professor Imogen Saunders (ANU) and Dr Christopher Ward SC (NSW Bar) in a podcast. The podcast deals with elements in Australian law concerning the application of international human rights law and other human rights law from other countries, in the determination of municipal legal problems.

Originally a strict dualism was observed in the relationship of international law and municipal law. Recently, developments are occurring showing the growing interrelationship of international law and municipal law. This podcast illustrates this development.
