SUMMARY:The Special Measures Series: Webinar 2: "Practical Realities"
DESCRIPTION:Dear PILON members and friends\, \nWe are pleased to invite you to the second webinar in the PILON Sexual and Gender Based Violence Working Group Special Measures Series titled “Webinar 2: Practical Realities”\, taking place next week on Friday 20th  May 2022 at 3.00pm Apia time (Friday) / 12noon Canberra time (Friday) / 4.00pm Cook Islands time (Thursday). \nIn our previous webinar we heard from two senior prosecutors from Fiji and Samoa. It is now time to hear experiences from smaller jurisdictions\, to better understand the broader Pacific story. \nWe will continue to discuss the many barriers to access to justice for victims of sexual and gender-based violence\, including the adversarial legal system and in particular cross-examination. As a practical tool\, the PILON Sexual and Gender Based Violence Working Group has published Model Provisions and Explanatory Text (Supporting Vulnerable Witnesses in cases involving sexual and gender based violence) to assist Pacific countries with law reform to overcome some of these barriers. \n SPEAKERS \nThe second webinar in this series will showcase the experiences of two smaller jurisdictions\, who will share the practical realities encountered when using special measures: \n \n  \nCutty Wase is currently the Chief Prosecutor of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. His career has spanned drafting and prosecuting in both the private and public sectors. Beginning as an Assistant Legislative Counsel he became RMI’s Assistant Attorney General\, later taking on a Staff Attorney Position through the Micronesian Legal Services Corporation. Chief Prosecutor Wase will share the Marshallese experience of using special measures. \n  \n  \n \n  \nAnnabel Maxwell-Scott is currently the Deputy Solicitor-General of the Cook Islands.  She oversees all criminal prosecution work ranging from serious sexual violence to drug and fraud prosecutions and advisory work.  Annabel was trained in the UK and admitted to the Bar there in 1996.  She moved to NZ in 2009 and worked with the Public Defence Service before moving into independent practice in 2013 where she predominantly defended serious crime. \n  \n  \nHOW TO REGISTER \nWe invite you to register for this free webinar via the following link: \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER \nWe encourage you to share this invite with any colleagues who may benefit from this webinar\, including police officers\, prosecutors\, court staff\, victim support services\, women support services and other service providers. \nPlease do not hesitate to contact the PILON Secretariat (pilon@pilonsec.org) should you have any questions. \n

SUMMARY:PILON webinar - Following the digital paper trail
DESCRIPTION:Registrations are now open: \nI am pleased to invite you to the PILON Cybercrime Working Group and Corruption Working Group webinar “Following the digital paper trail”\, taking place on Friday 1 April 2022 at 11:30am Canberra time/ 1:30pm Nuku’alofa time/ 12:30pm Yaren time. \nCorruption and financial crime are growing concerns for many countries around the world\, including those across the Pacific.

As financial crime and corruption are becoming increasingly sophisticated\, the proper use and analysis of digital evidence is vital to achieving successful prosecutions for corruption related offences. \nThis webinar will feature presenters working in law enforcement and prosecution agencies and will be of interest to any officials involved in the gathering\, analysis or use of digital evidence. \nAn agenda will be circulated in coming days with further information on the speakers and topics. \nWe invite you to register for this webinar via the following link: \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER \nWe encourage you to share the webinar details with any colleagues who may benefit from this webinar\, including police officers\, digital forensic specialists and prosecutors. \nPlease do not hesitate to contact the PILON Secretariat (pilon@pilonsec.org) should you have any questions.
