2018 COAT National Conference
Toward the Horizon - Tribunals of the future
7 - 8 June 2018
Location
QT Canberra, ACT
The program focused on features of the broader community, future trends within Australasia and the impact they have on the work of tribunals.
In other words, we looked well outside the day-to-day work of tribunals to understand changes in the environment in which we operate, in order to inform the development of future practices.
