This panel focuses on the theme of identity pertaining to sex, gender and sexuality and the challenges related to such in public law in local, international and supranational contexts. Drawing attention to the United Nations, the European Court of Human Rights, and the local Hong Kong jurisdiction, the panel explores the diverse ways in which rights pertaining to sex, gender and sexuality are protected, or not, in public law fora. In doing so the panel also explores strategies that may be adopted to better engage with the complexities of sexed, gendered and LGBT* identities in public law. Panelists will explore how changing conceptions of rights, an evolutive approach to supranational jurisprudence, and engagement with concepts such as governance and visibility may offer productive ways forward in this area.
