2017 EXECUTIVE RESEARCH TOUR ITINERARYCALIFORNIA
The Court of the Future Network (based in Sydney) and the Institut des hautes études sur la justice (based in Paris) have organised five executive court research tours – to Paris and the north of France (2005), international and European courts in Strasbourg, Luxembourg and The Hague, plus an add-on to the south of France (2008), Catalonia, Luxembourg and Germany (2011), Montreal and New York (2013) and Denmark and Sweden (2016). Participants have included judges, court executives, architects, engineers and academics with an interest in court architecture and justice processes.
The Court of the Future Network has also run four Justice Environments Conferences: in Canberra (2002), Melbourne (2006), Sydney (2010) and Brisbane (2013). Each of these included an architecture tour of court buildings in the region of the conference.
The fifth tour in 2016 took delegates to courts in Denmark and Sweden. The Scandinavian courts, by way of elegant design, incorporated tradition into modern settings and processes, and promoted respect. The courts struck a balance between the provision of security and respecting the rights of all participants in the court process.
The second tour, in 2008, included European and international courts in Strasbourg, Luxembourg and The Hague. The tour included an architectural design exercise in the Peace Palace where groups outlined their ideal courtroom configurations for hearings involving alleged war crimes, human rights violations and disputes between nations.
The third tour in 2011 involved courts in Barcelona and other parts of Catalonia, Luxembourg, Düsseldorf, and the historic Kammergericht in Berlin. In 2013, we visited Montreal and New York, including the University of Montreal’s cyberjustice lab, and the famous Red Hook Community Centre in Brooklyn.

The first tour in 2005 included memorable new French courts, including those by Jean Nouvel, Richard Rogers and Henri Cirani. One highlight was a mock trial in a special terrorism courtroom in Paris, conducted in French, English and Chinese and displaying the different court layouts used by each legal tradition.
The sixth tour is the second one to take place in North America, this time on the west coast, travelling in an executive bus from San Francisco to Los Angeles. The tour will focus on several key technological challenges facing courts. We will visit three federal and two state courts, spending two days in Silicon Valley including visits to the headquarters of Cisco and Facebook. The technology themes are:
1. The paperless courtroom: digital documents and evidence display 2. Cyber security 3. Immersive video-conferencing4. Integrated courtroom management 5. Social media for courts 6. Remote interpreting 7. Online Dispute Resolution and Artificial Intelligence
The tour provides plenty of opportunities for informal exchanges between hosts and tour participants, and between the participants themselves
