The Explainer Series: International Law

International Law

With global conflict, shifting alliances, and escalating crises dominating headlines, it’s easy to wonder - is the world more unstable than ever? Or are we simply more exposed to every flashpoint, everywhere? This talk will explore what international law actually is, how it works, and whether it still holds power in shaping diplomacy, justice and global accountability.

The Explainer Series

The Explainer Series is a space for thoughtful conversations with people who really know their stuff, sharing insights and context so we can better navigate the big and small questions in our lives.

From international law and cryptocurrency to climate change, gut health and space junk, these talks bring ideas, trends and debates into focus, helping us form our own understanding, guided by curiosity and expertise.

There’s no spin and no hype, just experts helping us think more clearly about the world around us.

The Explainer Series is generously supported by Gina Fairfax AC and Tim Fairfax AC through the Queensland Library Foundation.
