Be it the internet, IT enabled platforms or mobile phones to make digital connectivity simpler and effective, we continued to function in India through these digital systems. The global pandemic has created havoc with the lives, health and safety of people but it has also given us a lot of opportunity. It has created many challenges which require legal solutions.\u00a0 Though this transformation is important in the digital ecosystem, the future of legal education must focus on technology. Technology creates opportunity but it also poses challenges especially for regulation.\u00a0Law Schools need more adoption of technology related legal education to prepare students for a successful career. It is very important that these challenges must be taught in law schools. Indian students are second to none but they also need proper exposure in global platforms. Understanding of technology related laws is a very important aspect which law schools must focus on,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTechnology has been widely used for governance in India especially for welfare entitlements. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become the norm and we need to harness it for health, education, agriculture and more but what should be the limit of AI?\u00a0\u00a0 Should human ethics have a role? What should be the legal architecture of the application of AI?\u00a0Any digital-legal system must not be completely oblivious of the basic time-tested attributes of human behaviour based on ethical values. The data economy will create other challenges too with issues like: Data economy and taxation, cyber-crimes and jurisdiction, cyber bullying, rogue elements, hacking of data.\u00a0The internet is a global platform but it has to connect to local ideas, culture and sensitivities. What should be the architecture of law in these areas? India is emerging as a global power, there is a compelling need for India to play its destined role in the international legal system as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Prof. (Dr.) C. Raj Kumar, Founding Vice Chancellor of O.P. Jindal Global University said, \u201c\u00a0Nearly 10 months since the outbreak of COVID-19, unfortunately, we are still in the midst of the pandemic, surrounded by innumerable questions about the future trajectories of legal education, globally.\u00a0As much as the pandemic can dampen our spirits; it has also awakened an innovative spirit in us, prompting us to find creative solutions and novel ideas, making the way forward. There is a need for law schools to shed the comforts of the past and espouse newer imaginations and embrace radical ideas.\u00a0Only such revolutionary openness to ideas and rapid responses to challenges can help legal education overcome the crisis. It is beyond doubt that time calls for daring and extraordinary experiments, and this conference aims to invoke this thought process globally by bringing together thought leaders of the legal fraternity from across the world including Law School Deans, Supreme Court Judges, Law Firm Partners, Senior Advocates, Lawyers, Law Professors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is true that the pandemic has changed the world and the legal profession forever.\u00a0What has not changed is the quest for justice and the need for all civilized societies and nations to provide speedy justice.\u00a0 Humanity still needs justice and the professionals in pursuit of that human goal.\u00a0The rule of law is aligned with the basic human condition particularly in free societies. Modern legal education must incorporate emotional intelligence along with legal knowledge and skills with personal effectiveness and an entrepreneurial mindset.\u00a0Law education must also focus on technology, social media skills, data analytics, data security and design thinking. The pre-pandemic model of law education is no longer the default position but will evolve into a hybrid system where faculty and students will become a borderless community,\u201d\u00a0said Mr. Cyril Shroff, Managing Partner of one of India\u2019s leading law firms \u2013 Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, in his keynote address said,<\/p>\n<p>Law Schools around the world have had to react swiftly to minimize the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in the last few months. Educational leaders, faced with multiple challenges, had to simultaneously cater to the needs of all their stakeholders and show immense resilience during this unprecedented crisis.\u00a0Therefore, this Conference has brought together nearly\u00a0170 thought leaders from 6 continents and 35+ countries\u00a0over\u00a030+ Thematic Sessions and 2 Keynote Addresses\u00a0to reimagine the future of legal education.<\/p>\n<p>The Conference is also bringing together diverse views from the\u00a0senior leadership of Leading Law Schools\u00a0across the world and India including\u00a0Stanford Law School, Cornell Law School, Melbourne Law School, National University of Singapore (NUS) Faculty of Law,\u00a0UNSW Law School,\u00a0Georgetown Law School, Faculty of Law &#8211; The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Faculty of Law &#8211; The University of Hong Kong, School of Law &#8211; University of Queensland, Durham Law School, Auckland Law School, School of Law &#8211; City University of Hong Kong, School of Law -Trinity College Dublin, Faculty of Law &#8211; Albert-Ludwigs-Universitaet Freiburg (ALUF), School of Law &#8211; University College Dublin, Faculty of Law &#8211; Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Birmingham Law School, Faculty of Law &#8211; Universidad Externado de Colombia, National Law School of India University (NLSIU) &#8211; Bengaluru, Gujarat National Law University, National Law University \u2013 Jodhpur, National Law University \u2013 Raipur, National Law Institute University \u2013 Bhopal, National Law University \u2013 Delhi, Nirma University Law School,\u00a0NALSAR University of Law,\u00a0School of Law\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0BML Munjal University,\u00a0and the University of Delhi.<\/p>\n<p>This Conference has speakers coming together from\u00a0Australia, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cyprus, France, Germany, Hong Kong SAR, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Mexico, Nepal, New Zealand, Nigeria, Qatar, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Tanzania, The Czech Republic, The Netherlands, The United Arab Emirates, The United Kingdom, The United States of America, Turkey, Uganda, Uruguay and India.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Penned by : Meheli<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The Future of Legal Education during and after the Covid-19 Pandemic Must Focus on Technology Related Laws, Data Protection, Cyber Crimes and Ethics \u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0India Must Play a Leading Global Role in the International Legal System &nbsp; New Delhi, 25 November, 2020: \u201cTechnology is going to be play a very crucial role in the future of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":60394,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[43285],"class_list":["post-60393","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-top-law-news","tag-o-p-jindal-global-university-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Digital Ecosystem Needs a Legal Framework for Governance : Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad - Legal News India - Supreme Court &amp; High Court Updates<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The Future of Legal Education during and after the Covid-19 Pandemic Must Focus on Technology Related Laws, Data Protection, Cyber Crimes and - Get the latest legal news from the Supreme Court, High Courts, and government.
