  • Fighting Economic Crime - a Shared Responsibility!
    THIRTY-SEVENTH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ECONOMIC CRIME SUNDAY 1st SEPTEMBER - SUNDAY 8th SEPTEMBER 2019 JESUS COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE Fighting economic crime - a shared responsibility! Centre of Development Studies The 37th Cambridge International Symposium on Economic Crime Fighting economic crime- a shared responsibility! The thirty-seventh international symposium on economic crime brings together, from across the globe, a unique level and depth of expertise to address one of the biggest threats facing the stability and development of all our economies. The overarching theme for the symposium is how we can better and more effectively work together in preventing, managing and combating the threat posed by economically motivated crime and abuse. The programme underlines that this is not just the responsibility of the authorities, but us all. These important and timely issues are considered in a practical, applied and relevant manner, by those who have real experience whether in law enforcement, regulation, compliance or simply protecting their own or another’s business. The symposium, albeit held in one of the world’s leading universities, is not a talking shop for those with vested interests or for that matter an academic gathering. We strive to offer a rich and deep analysis of the real issues and in particular threats to our institutions and economies presented by economic crime and abuse. Well over 700 experts from around the world will share their experience and knowledge with other participants drawn from policy makers, law enforcement, compliance, regulation, business and the professions. The programme is drawn up with the support of a number of agencies and organisations across the globe and the Organising Institutions and principal sponsors greatly value this international commitment.

  • Dr Laura Janes
    Using the law to make a difference Some reflections by Laura Janes They say that if you are not outraged, you are not paying attention. On outrage, attention and change Growing up, I was incensed by the injustice of the racism I saw around me where I lived in East London. The family of my local hairdresser was killed in their own home by a petrol bomb in a racist attack. My mum and I went to local anti-racist demonstrations and campaigned locally. The more I learned about the world around me, the more outrage I felt. I set up an amnesty group at school, and then university and continued to campaign on various issues. But I quickly became frustrated. It seemed to me that telling people what they should do, or not do, rarely worked. I formed the view that only the law could make people do the right thing. So I became a lawyer. Although I soon realised that the law has failed if it is only for lawyers. Law is not a secret weapon: is only effective if people know about it and it is respected. Public legal education, access to high quality legal information for ordinary people, decision makers and lawyers, is essential. Organisations like Legal Action Group, which I chair are key. 1 Why being a lawyer for change means fighting for access to justice or why I started YLAL On entering practice, I also found out that becoming a lawyer does not mean you can make a difference when you need to. There is the question of access to justice.
