Despite the common maxim “seeing is believing”, not everyone who sees a video interprets it in the same way. In this opening session of this fall`s webinar on video evidence, we will discuss how visual attention, perception and interpretation work in court. We`ll highlight the latest research in law, science, and humanities on how and why people tend to overweight the information they see, underweight the information they don`t see, and be overconfident about their own interpretation of what they see in a video. The question of how videos are presented and used in court is crucial to the pursuit of equal and fair justice in the digital age. Thanks to the virtual platform, we are able to accommodate a large number of participants, but there is always a maximum capacity. If you register and find that you no longer wish to participate, please send lensmailbox@law.duke.edu an email and let us know so we can open your space to others. To limit distractions for our speakers, provide a high-quality experience, and serve as a security measure, attendees will not be able to mute or unmute their video throughout the Zoom webinar. Participants can use the Q&A function at the bottom of the screen to ask questions throughout the program. We will try to answer as many questions as time permits.
This year`s conference will likely be recorded, but the names of the participants will not be released with the recording. The new Middle East Research Network on Internal Displacement (MERNID) is starting a conversation on this topic through three local case studies. MERNID strives to fill the research gaps on internal displacement in this region by building a strong community of researchers and practitioners around this challenge. The webinar will be moderated by MERNID Director Dr. Hana Asfour. Registration for the webinar can be found here. If you have any questions, please contact Isabel Fox at isabel.fox@law.duke.edu. Internally displaced persons (IDPs) are generally considered citizens of their country who can in principle rely on the legal protection of their own government.
But the huge IDP crises of the last decade in the Middle East strongly challenge these assumptions. What role does the law play in protecting internally displaced people trapped in volatile and conflict-torn contexts, such as Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan? What does this mean for the legal concepts of citizenship – and statelessness – in this region? This webinar is a webinar in the Video in Legal Decision-Making webinar series presented by Sandra Ristovska as part of her Mellon/ACLS Scholars & Society Fellowship. Explore the growing problem of technology, online care, human trafficking and crimes against children. Find out what you can do from a legal representation perspective. This training is led by Kelsey Mullins, JD, MSW, End Abuse Staff Attorney – Underserved Populations. You will not receive Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credits for attending this webinar.
