Contents at the intersections of Law, Art and Religion (LAR)

Talks for all event, lectures and experientials are multi-disciplinary in content, featuring participants of all walks of life and context experts who are willing to share real life cases, in a friendly, intimate and non-judgemental manner, with a view to promoting a better understanding and appreciation of the complex adaptive nature of justice as a systems, and the real-life outcomes of various preventive, restorative or curative procedures.

Private nature of events

Registered participants only. Participants will be identified upon their arrival and given attendance passes for access to conference and meetings rooms and facilities. Doing so allows us to provide our clients with the security they need and expect in order to fully enjoy their attendance to one of our special events, lectures or experientials. Due to their delicate nature, the contents and discussions held during Praxis Forum events, lectures or experientials workshops are not available or otherwise distributed online. 

Intellectual Property Rights 

Individual or shared intellectual property rights may apply to material created or co-produced during the conference or workshop development process. 

Cost of events

The cost of a Talks for All event, lecture or experiential workshop may depend on its scope and intended outreach, notably where it is understood, that the contents of such special events will be offered to a multitude of participants or corporate members within a department or regional. This said, costs may be established on a fixed hourly rate, a percentage base or a flat-all inclusive rate. In addition, travel and logding and other administrative cost may apply to the organization and delivery of Talks for All events on behalf or in collaboration with our clients and their partners.
