Description of the session:
Join presenters from Community Legal Assistance Society (CLAS)’s Speak Out project for an interactive discussion on the misuse of NDAs, and their role in perpetuating gender-based violence and systemic inequalities. The presenters will introduce CLAS’s new community consultation initiative, Speak Out, aimed to develop policy and law reform recommendations to improve reporting in organizations of gender-based violence and regulate NDAs. This workshop is open to anyone interested in learning more about NDAs and the Speak Out project. As well as lawyers and advocates, we welcome those working in community-serving organizations in non-legal roles and members of the public.
