Judge Theodor Meron: Standing up for justice: one life, four careers

Few people will have lived lives as remarkable as that of Trinity Honorary Fellow Judge Theodor Meron CMG, Visiting Professor at Oxford’s law faculty. He has spent more than seven decades working in roles ranging from academia to legal adviser to the US and Israeli state departments, judge and president of UN war crimes tribunals, and special adviser to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court. Judge Meron has been credited with advancing humanitarian law and justice for war crimes victims across the world. He will discuss the principles that have guided a life of extraordinary influence on international criminal justice. He will be joined in conversation by Helena Kennedy, Baroness Kennedy of The Shaws, LT, KC, FRSA, and Member of the House of Lords.
