Religious institutions face a raft of legal and regulatory challenges, particularly during these uncertain times. Following from the success of our inaugural Religious Institutions conference in 2019, this year’s conference examines the key issues facing religious institutions, from dispute resolution in faith based organisations, to navigating the ever-evolving employment law landscape. It also examines key safety and liability issues, including current issues in civil law claims for historical sexual abuse, as well as legal and risk issues in crisis management.
