Last week, we held the final of the LexisNexis Paper Presentation Competition, featuring four outstanding student presentations:
🌟 Molly Zhou, “Orbiting Parental Alienation: What Are Its Effects on the Extraterrestrial Rights of Children in Humanoid Disputes?”
🌟 Grace Lee, “To what extent do Article 72-3 of the French Constitution and the Nouméa Accord (1998) give effect to Indigenous Kanak self-determination?”
🌟 Nilpa Singh, “Between Death and Criminalisation — Reasonable for Whom? New Zealand Self-Defence Laws Through a Feminist Lens”
🌟 Paikar Mustafa — “Greenwashing as a Structural Failure of Corporate Governance: Lessons from ACCR v Santos”
Congratulations to Molly Zhou, who was awarded first place! The quality of all four presentations was exceptional, and the judges had no easy task.
A sincere thank you to our judges, Graeme Switzer, Simon Schofield, and Simon Laracy, for sharing their time, expertise, and thoughtful feedback.
Lastly, thank you to LexisNexis for their continued support of the competition!
