Nicosia 2017: Freedom of Expression Online

Council of Europe - Freedom of Expression Online - Evolving jurisprudence and standard setting activities in the digital age

I was delighted to be an invited speaker at this event. I was speaking on Panel 1: Freedom of expression online in the light of Strasbourg case-law and related standard-setting activities.

I was asked to address Member State caselaw and freedom of expression, and I chose to use the example of copyright enforcement. The audience comprised judges and members of the legal profession.
