Michael was awarded the prestigious International Bar Association’s Outstanding Young Lawyer in 2021. This award is given to one young lawyer every year in recognition of their ‘excellence in their work and achievements in their career to date, but also a commitment to professional and ethical standards as well as a commitment to the larger community.’ Michael was recognised as the most outstanding young lawyer in the world for his ‘commitment to defending human rights across the globe through his professional practice and personal endeavours.’ Michael Polak also serves as the Director of Justice Abroad, where he has represented families and individuals in various cases, including those detained arbitrarily or involved in suspicious death circumstances. In this role, he represented the family of George Lowe who was murdered in Ayia Napa in their pursuit of justice, a number of Uyghur clients who have been arbitrarily detained in the Uyghur Region, Chau Van Kham, a Vietnamese-Australian democracy activist who has been found by the United Nations to be arbitrarily detained in Vietnam, and the family of Dean Wright who was found dead on a luggage trolley inside a Cancun resort in suspicious circumstances. He was also part of the team pushing for the release of Mir Ahmad Bin Quasem who was subject to enforced disappearance in 2016 and release in early August 2024. Mr Polak's contributions to the legal field also include authoring articles on legal topics, such as INTERPOL Notices, and participating in legal research and advocacy at the international level. </div>  <div class="modal-footer"> <button type="button" class="btn btn-danger" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 col-md-6 col-lg-4 align-items-stretch "> <div class="align-items-stretch "> <div class="card-body"> <div class="media"> <div class="webinar_speaker"> <div class="speaker_image"> <img src="/medias/?context=bWFzdGVyfHJvb3R8MTc2MjY1fGltYWdlL3BuZ3xhR1EzTDJnd1lTODVNRE01TkRrNU16STVOVFkyfGVjYjIwMTcxOTJiYzE2MmE4ZmVkOThkNTE1NzA2NWNkZTI4Nzg4MTlhZWI5ZGI5Y2Y1ZTllNGJjZDk3ZmM4OWI" title="Abdalle Mumin" class="photo"> </div> <div class="speaker_details"> <h5 class="card-title">Abdalle Mumin</h5> <p class="mb-1">Speaker <br> Somali Journalist Syndicate, Mogadishu, Somalia</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="modal" id="readBiographyModal_CONF2454_118032" style="display: none;" aria-hidden="true"> <div class="modal-dialog"> <div class="modal-content">  <div class="modal-header"> <h4 class="modal-title">Biography</h4> <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button> </div>  <div class="modal-body"> </div>  <div class="modal-footer"> <button type="button" class="btn btn-danger" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 col-md-6 col-lg-4 align-items-stretch "> <div class="align-items-stretch "> <div class="card-body"> <div class="media"> <div class="webinar_speaker"> <div class="speaker_image"> <img src="/medias/?context=bWFzdGVyfHJvb3R8NDIzMzF8aW1hZ2UvcG5nfGFHUmpMMmd6TVM4NE9EUTJOakl6TlRBMk5EWXl8OWY4NjM5OTAxNzMwNDA5NTY2NmIxOWU0ODMyN2UxMzBkZGQ2YTk3NjVkNzMyNTViZTA4YTRiMmJiYzQ2ZjEyMw" title="Caoilfhionn Gallagher" class="photo"> </div> <div class="speaker_details"> <h5 class="card-title">Caoilfhionn Gallagher</h5> <p class="mb-1">Speaker <br> Doughty Street Chambers, London, England</p> <a href="" class="btn-link" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#readBiographyModal_CONF2454_115000">Read biography</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="modal" id="readBiographyModal_CONF2454_115000" style="display: none;" aria-hidden="true"> <div class="modal-dialog"> <div class="modal-content">  <div class="modal-header"> <h4 class="modal-title">Biography</h4> <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button> </div>  <div class="modal-body"> Caoilfhionn Gallagher KC is a human rights lawyer, practising from Doughty Street Chambers, London. Over the past 20 years she has acted in many landmark human rights cases in the UK and internationally, before the European Court of Human Rights, international courts and UN bodies. Caoilfhionn has acted for, and secured the freedom of, many arbitrarily detained journalists, cartoonists, peaceful protestors and human rights defenders around the world, including in Iran, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the Middle East. She has also acted in a wide range of leading human rights cases, including on children's rights, reproductive rights, prisoners' rights, violence against women and girls, austerity policies and discrimination against marginalised groups, the rights of victims and survivors of terrorism, and inquests concerning failures by State bodies. Caoilfhionn has particular expertise in accountability for crimes against journalists. Her current cases in this field include leading the international legal teams for media owner Jimmy Lai, imprisoned in Hong Kong; for over 150 BBC News Persian journalists, targeted extraterritorially by Iran; for the bereaved family of journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia, assassinated in Malta in 2017; and leading (jointly with colleague Amal Clooney) the international legal team for Maria Ressa, the Nobel Peace Prize winning journalist in the Philippines. Caoilfhionn has given expert evidence on accountability for crimes against journalists and gender-based violence against women journalists to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, UNESCO and Parliamentary inquiries in the UK, Australia and the Council of Europe. In 2023 Caoilfhionn was appointed Special Rapporteur on Child Protection by the Irish Government. She also sits part-time as a Coroner in England and Wales, is an Adjunct Full Professor at University College Dublin and is a Commissioner of the Irish Human Rights and Equalities Commission. She was appointed a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts in 2017 for her “outstanding commitment to enabling the Human Rights Act’s protections” for devising Act for the Act, a mass advertising campaign to tell positive human rights stories. </div>  <div class="modal-footer"> <button type="button" class="btn btn-danger" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 col-md-6 col-lg-4 align-items-stretch "> <div class="align-items-stretch "> <div class="card-body"> <div class="media"> <div class="webinar_speaker"> <div class="speaker_image"> <img src="/medias/?context=bWFzdGVyfHJvb3R8MzUzNjkyfGltYWdlL3BuZ3xhRGd5TDJnMU5TODVNRE00TWpFMU9UQTFNekV3fGVhZTMwZjk2MTU2YzQ5YzQ1ZTk0YjAyOGM0OTI5MjA3NWQ1NTJmMjk5MmU4OGZjZDMyMzYxNGY5ODY5ZmU5NTY" title="Hina Jilani" class="photo"> </div> <div class="speaker_details"> <h5 class="card-title">Hina Jilani</h5> <p class="mb-1">Speaker <br> Pakistan Supreme Court, Lahore, Pakistan</p> <a href="" class="btn-link" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#readBiographyModal_CONF2454_115002">Read biography</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="modal" id="readBiographyModal_CONF2454_115002" style="display: none;" aria-hidden="true"> <div class="modal-dialog"> <div class="modal-content">  <div class="modal-header"> <h4 class="modal-title">Biography</h4> <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button> </div>  <div class="modal-body"> Hina Jilani is a lawyer practicing in the Supreme Court of Pakistan.
