Unconscious Bias in Litigation

Paula Puddy, HBA LLB MBA

This week we are taking a look at unconscious bias, from the perspective of two legal phenoms!

In this transformative age when actions against unconscious bias and social injustice have swiftly gathered momentum, we bring you an enlightening Q & A on what this means for us as people, as a profession, and as propellers for change.

During this TLA presentation, hear Louise Arbour and Marie Henein tell us how they have approached unconscious bias and how to combat it.

Topics will include the following:

• personal experiences with power, privilege and unconscious bias
• how to prevent bias and discrimination in workplaces
• bias, discrimination and underrepresentation as viewed through a judicial lens
• why the existence and consequences of unconscious bias are important to the bench and bar
