Our principal immigration lawyer, Will Tao, is one of the speakers for York University’s Centre for Refugee Studies Summer Course on Forced Migration: Exploring the intersections between forced migration and technology. York University’s Centre for Refugee Studies Summer Course, which is being offered in collaboration with Osgoode Hall Law School’s Refugee Law Laboratory, will focus on research, policy, and practices at the intersections of forced migration and technology.
As one of the speakers, Wei William (Will) Tao’s current research focuses on the intersections between administrative law, Canadian immigration law, and artificial intelligence. Will Tao has been exploring the development of new, robust, and responsive legal analytical frameworks to analyze the judicial review of automated decision-making in immigration, through the perspective of the Federal Court and immigration applicants.
Specifically for this presentation, Will will be shifting his usual focus to how these automated systems impact refugee applicants – both seeking to come to Canada to make refugee claims and through Canada’s private refugee sponsorship program.
This summer course will be held from June 3-7, 2024 in downtown Toronto in a hybrid format. Find more about York University’s Centre for Refugee Studies Summer Course here,
