The Kaldor Centre Oration, 2024

The 2024 Oration

The inaugural Kaldor Centre Oration was delivered by Kate Eastman AM SC and Zaki Haidari on Thursday 21 November 2024 at the Playhouse Theatre, National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA), in Sydney Australia. 

Among their many accomplishments, Kate Eastman AM SC is a barrister at New Chambers and a Commissioner at the New South Wales Law Reform Commission, and Zaki Haidari is a refugee rights advocate with Amnesty International.

Their powerful, moving reflections – on the ‘Tampa affair’ and its ramifications for refugees in the years since – are now available as video and podcast recordings for you to revisit and share with others.
