SUMMARY:#GoTheDistance for detainees at the London Legal Walk 2020
DESCRIPTION:Join BID’s team on Monday 8th June for the London Legal Walk to #GoTheDistance for immigration detainees.  \nWe’re looking for volunteers to walk 10km to raise funds for our vital work providing free legal advice for people in detention.  \nWhy walk? \nPrior to the legal aid cuts of 2012\, which removed immigration matters from the scope of legal aid\, BID’s legal advice survey showed that 59% of those held in immigration detention had a legal representative funded by legal aid. Our latest legal survey from February 2020 shows this figure has almost halved and now stands at just 32%. \nThe situation is worse still for those held in prisons under immigration powers\, as there is no provision of immigration legal advice in prisons. Just 20.8% of people we spoke to who had been detained in prison before transferring to a detention centre had received any immigration advice while in prison. \nWhy BID? \nLast year BID supported 5\,941 people to fight for their freedom. This included 167 parents separated from their 322 children and thousands of vulnerable adults including those with severe mental and physical health conditions and victims of torture\, trafficking and sexual violence. \nBID is a very small charity with no legal aid contract nor government funding. We are completely independent\, powered by the generous support of like-minded people who care as much as we do about human rights. By joining our team to #GoTheDifference you can help us provide desperately-needed legal advice to people detained in removal centres and prisons across the UK. \nWhat can I expect from the day? \nRegistration will open from 4pm – 7pm on Carey Street on Monday 8th June and walkers can choose on the day between the Parks Route and the River Route. A BID representative will greet you and supply you with maps and a drink token. The walk concludes with a street party on Carey Street with street food vendors\, fire jugglers and musicians. Last year 13\,000 people took park and LLST are expecting to break that record again this year! \nHow much would I need to fundraise? \nLast year our walkers raised an incredible total of £2725.88! That worked out as about £227 each. We recommend you set a fundraising target of £200 and we’ll provide plenty of support to help you exceed it! \nHow do I sign up? \nThere is no fee to register all you need to do is sign up through Eventbrite! \nAny questions? \nOur fundraising and communications coordinator Elisa would be delighted to hear from you. You can contact her by emailing Elisa@biduk.org.

SUMMARY:ICAHD UK Annual Conference 2020
DESCRIPTION:The ICAHD UK Annual Conference on the theme ‘Home Demolitions: The Story\, The Law\, The Trauma\, The Future’\n\n\n\nSince 1967\, when Israel’s occupation began\, more than 55\,000 Palestinian homes and structures vital for living have been demolished in East Jerusalem\, the West Bank and Gaza in violation of international law\, less than 1% for security reasons.  ICAHD UK invites you to attend its annual conference to hear Atta Jaber relate how demolitions of his home and settler violence have impacted on his family.  \nIn the conference we will explain the legal status of demolitions and what is being done in the Israeli courts and at the United Nations to challenge Israel’s demolition policy in both the occupied territory and in Israel.  \nLiving under Israel’s brutal military occupation and apartheid policies has resulted on ongoing trauma Learn about how demolitions affect the members of Palestinian families in different ways and impact the wider community. Find out what is being done to provide mental health support and build resistance.  \nWe will also address how Israel’s ongoing settler-colonial project has given rise to one de facto state in all historic Palestine\, and how ICAHD UK’s campaigns must reflect this reality.  \nThe afternoon will oontinue with news about our next rebuilding camp and the strategic Palestinian and Israelis partners who are joining us for this powerful political act of non-violent resistance to Israel’s demolition policies. Information will be shared about our unique study tours that have proved life-changing for participants.  \nBook your place before 31 March 2020 for a £5 ‘Early Bird’ discount on members and non-member rates! \n \nParticipating in the conference will include:  \nAtta Jaber\, Palestinian from the West Bank. A violent campaign by extreme religious settlers has been waged against Palestinian farmers in one of the most fertile agricultural areas of the West Bank\, the Baka Valley\, which is steadily being encroached upon by large suburbs of the settlement of Kiryat Arba\, in Hebron. The Jaber family has experienced multiple house demolitions\, and their wells and irrigation systems have been destroyed many times by settlers just before harvest. The family has experienced other forms of settler violence\, yet they are determined to remain on the land that has been in their family for generations. \nSuhad Bishara\, senior lawyer with Adalah\, Legal Centre for Minority Rights in Israel\, where she has worked since 2001.

SUMMARY:The future of professional identities in project delivery
DESCRIPTION:Transforming the construction industry through offsite manufacturing and digital technologies.\n\n\n\n******Due to the recent Covid-19 pandemic\, this event has been cancelled. Please DO NOT attend this event.****** \nEVENT INFORMATION \nDate: Thursday 28th May 2020 \nTime: 18:00 tea and coffee for 18:20 start\, 19:30 finish \nVenue: Main Auditorium\, Institution of Structural Engineers HQ\, 47-58 Bastwick St\, London EC1V 3PS \nTickets: FREE for members and non-members \nSCHEDULE \n18:00 – 18:20 Tea and Coffee Reception \n18:20 – 19:20 Talk \n19:20 – 19:30 Q&A \n19:40                   Close \nSYNOPSIS \nCurrent developments in the UK construction sector are aimed at increasing the use of offsite manufacturing and digital technologies for the delivery of construction projects. These approaches are gradually changing how assets are designed\, built and managed\, as well as changing the professional services that underpin key areas of project delivery. The uptake of these ‘modern’ approaches will impact the roles that design professionals play in the construction sector – what will the future be for professional identities in delivering projects using offsite manufacturing and digital technologies?The presentation will highlight the potential implications that developments around OSM and digital technology applications hold for construction design professionals. This will be followed by an interactive discussion about the relevant capabilities that construction professionals/firms could consider exploring in order to remain relevant and competitive in a digitally enabled and OSM-driven environment for project delivery. \nSPEAKER \nDr Kwadwo Oti-Sarpong  BSc PhD  \nResearch Associate | University of Cambridge \nDr Kwadwo Oti-Sarpong is a Research Associate at the Cambridge Centre for Housing and Planning Research\, Department of Land Economy\, University of Cambridge. He is part of a team investigating the non-technical inhibitors to an industry-wide uptake of digital technologies in the construction industry. His research seeks to understand why digital approaches have not yet become mainstream despite their widely acknowledged benefits\, and to make suggestions as to how industry-wide changes can be made. Additionally\, the research explores how emerging digital technologies can be integrated with off-site manufacturing (OSM) to increase the potential for widespread uptake in the UK construction industry. \nInspired by his interest in construction technology and its application in project settings\, Kwadwo studied for a PhD in the Department of Real Estate and Construction\, University of Hong Kong (HKU). He used the social construction of technology (SCOT) approach to explore the complex interactions embedded in a project-based technology adoption processes in a new environment.  \nHe previously worked as a Post-Doctoral Researcher at Hong Kong University where he investigated how small and medium construction firms were responding to a government mandate for compulsory building information modelling (BIM) use on all public works projects. Specifically\, he examined these developments through the ‘Digital Divide’ theoretical lens. With industry experience in both consulting and on-site roles serving clients and contractors on various building projects\, Kwadwo has extensive teaching experience at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.  \n \nDownload flyer as pdf \nRegister for ticket or to share this event: https://Cam-KO.eventbrite.co.uk \n\n\n\nNOTE \nPlaces are limited and this event has a awaiting list\, please cancel the ticket if no longer required. \nAll events listed in our regional group can be found here: http://IStructE-NTRG.eventbrite.com \nThis event will not be recorded or live streamed online.

SUMMARY:An ABC of Sales and Marketing for Law Firms
DESCRIPTION:Why is it that for some legal practices ‘selling’ is seen as a bad word?

We will look at some common issues for every business and some of the solutions that have been applied successfully and are current best practice. We will consider what ‘selling’ is and how we can do it better and better and without selling. We will look at the ‘value’ of our existing clients and how to maximise this for their and our benefit. Finally we will consider some of the challenges that prevent organisations adopting change and how to address it. \nCPD 2 Hours \nRegistration and Coffee 1:30pm \nPEAT Outcome – Relevant legal knowledge \nOBJECTIVES \nSeminar Topics: \n\nThe importance of selling\nWhat selling actually is in a legal context\nDeveloping the whole practice with marketing in mind\nThe importance of existing clients\nOvercoming barriers to change\n\nLearning Outcomes: \n\nThe importance of marketing within a legal business\nHow to develop meaningful client relationships\nThe value of our existing clients\nThe importance of the whole organisation in marketing efforts\nThe barriers to change and how to address them\n\nPARTICIPANTS \nThis seminar will be of interest to anyone in a legal firm who deals with the public or has an interest in sales and marketing. \nSPEAKER \nStephen Vallance\, Harper Macleod.
