    Acknowledgements The two editors of this book are best described as ‘hands-on’ academics. We have both maintained our credentials as lawyers after moving into the academy from legal practice. A co-founder (in 1989) of Melbourne’s first community legal centre specializing in immigration and refugee law (known now as Refugee Legal), Mary has taken a particular interest in the plight of migrant children over many years. In 2006, Lenni began holding trainings for pro bono attorneys at New York Law School to expand the pool of attorneys prepared to represent child migrants. In 2012, as the numbers of unaccompanied minors arriving at the south west border of the United States grew exponentially, she founded the Safe Passage Project, a law school clinic combined with a non-profit representing hundreds of children via direct and mentored pro bono services. This book has involved considerable work and commitment on the part of many people. We are deeply grateful to each of our contributors and for their patience in reviewing and revising their work so as to give a sense of unity and fluency to what would otherwise be a very diverse collection. Research for this book was made possible through the support of private donor, Ms Judy Harris; research funding by New York Law School and private donor, Sheila Wellington; and before that, the Australian Research Council, Linkage Project LP100200596 ‘Small Mercies, Big Futures: Enhancing Law, Policy and Practice in the Selection, Protection and Settlement of Refugee Children and Youth’. In 2015, many of the authors met at the University of Sydney (supported by Sydney Law School) and later that year New York Law School convened a meeting of many of the US authors.

  • Professor Mccallum's Lecture
    “Nothing About Us Without Us”: National Responses to the CRPD Six Years On By Professor Emeritus Ron McCallum AO1 The King & Wood Mallesons/Castan Centre Annual Human Rights Lecture NAB Arena NAB Building 700 Burke Street, Melbourne Friday 22 August 2014 1. Introduction Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. It is indeed a huge honour for me to deliver this annual human rights lecture named for Ron Castan QC. I met Ron on several occasions, but we never conversed at any length. I was a young admirer from afar for he was an example to us all on how law could be utilised to enhance and to protect the human rights of all persons, especially Indigenous Australians. Sadly, Ron passed away just a few days shy of his sixtieth birthday, but his work lives on in the Castan centre which focuses upon human rights law, practice and scholarship. 2. The CRPD Committee I well remember Monday morning 23 February 2009. It was very cold, for my wife, Professor Mary Crock, and I found ourselves in Geneva. We alighted from the tram and walked under the flags at the Palais des Nations, one of the major United Nations buildings. I was excited yet nervous, for this was my first day as an inaugural member of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the CRPD Committee. The primary purpose of the CRPD Committee is to monitor the implementation on a world-wide basis of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities2 which I shall call the CRPD.

    A Forgotten Cohort: Citizenship Through Work and Persons with Disabilities Ron McCallum* & Hannah Martin" Though the UnitedNations has recognized that access to work is afundamentalhuman right, access to this right is commonly denied to persons with disabilities throughout the world. Their exclusion from full participationin the labourforce has generated,and continues to generate, both economic andsocial disadvantageswhile also preventing them from accessinga key feature of citizenship: the right to work. The authors argue that improving persons with disabilities' access to, andparticipationin, employment will allow them to take-and also to give back-the full benefits of industrial citizenship. An examination of various internationalinstruments, including the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, provides an overview of the commitments made to persons with disabilities regardingfair and equal employment. The authors use the case studies ofAustralia and Canada as a means to examine the effectiveness of two very different strategiesfor increasing employment for persons with disabilities-anti- discriminationlegislation and sheltered workshops. The authors ultimately conclude that only policies that increasepersons with disabilities' access to the open labour market, such as anti- discriminationlegislation and the imposition of duties of reasonableaccommodation, have the potential to allow persons with disabilitiesto accessfull citizenship at and through work.
