Criminalization & COVID-19: Public Health and Human Rights Implications

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, countries are increasingly turning to criminal sanctions as a means to enforce social distancing and control the epidemic. Taking an interdisciplinary approach of law, policy-making and public health, our speakers discuss the health and human rights considerations of criminalization of COVID-19.

This is an online event. It will be live streamed on the Centre for Ethics YouTube Channel at 11am, Wednesday, April 29. Channel subscribers will receive a notification at the start of the live stream.
