    'Medicine and the Rule of Law': The Baron Ver Heyden de Lancey Lecture 2024

    'Medicine and the Rule of Law': The Baron Ver Heyden de Lancey Lecture 2024

    Baron Cornelius Ver Heyden de Lancey (1889-1984) was a wealthy and public-spirited Dutchman who at different times in his life was a dentist, doctor, surgeon, barrister and art historian. In 1970 he created the De Lancey and De La Hanty Foundation, to promote studies in medico-legal topics. The Foundation generously gave Cambridge the Ver Heyden de Lancey Fund, which since 1996 has funded occasional public lectures on medico-legal issues of current interest.

    The 2024 Baron Ver Heyden de Lancey Lecture on Medico-Legal Studies was delivered by Professor Sir Jonathan Montgomery of University College London on 21 March 2024, and was entitled "Medicine and the Rule of Law".

    CFL Lecture: 'The Lundy Model of Child Participation: space, voice, audience and influence for young people in decision making when parents separate' (audio)

    CFL Lecture: 'The Lundy Model of Child Participation: space, voice, audience and influence for young people in decision making when parents separate' (audio)

    This event was hosted by Cambridge Family Law Centre (CFL) on 7 March 2024.

    Speakers: Professor Laura Lundy (Queen’s University Belfast), Professor Anne Barlow (University of Exeter) & Dr Jan Ewing (University of Cambridge)

    When parents separate, children have the right to a voice in the decision-making per their article 12, UNCRC rights. However, evidence shows that this right is rarely upheld in England and Wales.

    Professor Lundy has developed the ‘Lundy Model of Child Participation’ (‘the Lundy Model’), a core set of rights-based principles to ensure young people can participate meaningfully in decision-making. The model is core to the Irish National Framework on Child and Youth Participation. It has been adopted internationally, by the European Commission, World Health Organisation, World Vision and UNICEF.

    Professor Lundy presents the Lundy Model and Professor Barlow and Dr Ewing presents the findings of empirical research from the Wellcome Trust Centre-funded, ‘HeaRT Project’ to consider the extent to which child-inclusive mediation as currently practised in England and Wales is compliant with their article 12 rights and the mental health and well-being benefits to young people when they are given space, voice, audience and influence per the Lundy Model in child-inclusive mediation.

    Cambridge University Human Rights Law Society: 'Re-framing the legal landscape in domestic homicide' (audio)

    Cambridge University Human Rights Law Society: 'Re-framing the legal landscape in domestic homicide' (audio)

    Cambridge University Human Rights Law Society hosted their speakers' event with Clare Wade KC on 23rd February 2024, titled 'Re-framing the legal landscape in domestic homicide.'

    Clare Wade KC is on the advisory committee for research into women who kill, commissioned by the Centre for Women's Justice. She was appointed Independent Reviewer on domestic homicide and recently published the Domestic Homicide Sentencing Review. She will be discussing her work on this, in which she made several recommendations for amendment to the current manslaughter guidelines to offer greater protection for victims of domestic violence. She will be discussing her recommendations and the recent package of government reforms released in response to these in 2023.

    Clare has also been counsel on several landmark cases, including the Sally Challen case which paved the way for the Court of Appeal to consider coercive control as a partial defence to murder for victims of domestic abuse. Clare has also received multiple accolades including 'Barrister of the Year' at the Women in Law Awards 2020, is ranked a Tier 1 criminal barrister, and was shortlisted for Crime Silk of the Year 2020 by the Legal 500.
