The Role of Corporate Governance in Extractives Sector
December 1, 2016 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm +04
Professor Jonathan Fulcher is one of Australia’s Leading native title and cultural heritage Lawyers, and applies his extensive resources, native title and cultural heritage experience to mining, oil and gas transactions, infrastructure developments, joint venture arrangements, and asset and share sales and acquisitions across Australia and internationally.
Active in practice and academia, Professor Fulcher delivers Lectures in Native Title at The University of Queensland and Griffith University. He is a current member of The University of Queensland Centre for International Minerals and Energy Law (CIMEL). Professor Fulcher has also been published in various international journals and has delivered papers at conferences and symposia in Australia, New Zealand and UK. Professor Fulcher was listed in Doyle’s Guide to Australia’s Leading Native Title Lawyers in 2010, 2012 and 2014, and is also one of Australia’s leading native title and cultural heritage lawyers, as ranked by Chambers Asia Pacific every year since 2007.
Corporate governance has been acknowledged as an issue of global importance. As it comes to natural resource extraction, a comprehensive corporate governance becomes even more vital in addressing challenges related to transparency, accountability, board oversight, respect for the rights of shareholders and role of key stakeholders. From this perspective, the public lecture will focus on understanding key linkages between good corporate governance and extractives sector sustainability, as well as discuss how corporate governance in the local context can be revamped to cater adequately for both public and private interests.
The event is in English and is open to public.
