DLC Candidate,

McGill University 

Proposed Program of Study

​

Title: "Conceptualising the Right to Protest in the Digital Age"

​

Rhona’s thesis will explore the underexamined trend in which supranational human rights courts and many domestic courts allow the right to protest to be eclipsed by other fundamental rights, such as the right to freedom of expression and, increasingly, the growing body of digital and privacy rights.

Title: "The House is Burning: The Emerging Prohibition of Ecocide in International Law".

 

My thesis aims to provide the first comprehensive treatise on ecocide under international law. It answers the following question: how does a prohibition of ecocide on individuals, states, and corporations challenge the existing international justice system, and how can these challenges be overcome?

Title: "Digital Witnesses: Video-Link Testimonies and the Fairness of Proceedings at the International Criminal Court"

​

My thesis aims to provide the first comprehensive empirical research derived from the viewpoint of ICC practitioners to investigate how the use of video-link technology to hear witnesses at the ICC impacts the conduct of testimonial judicial activities and, in turn, fair trial rights. These interviews seek to determine, in essence, how participants engaged in VLT perceived the effectiveness of examination and cross-examination and the assessment of evidence.​
