SUMMARY:NAWJ Webinar - Safeguarding Justice: Judicial Independence in a Changing World
DESCRIPTION:June 4\, 2026\n4:30 PM ET / 3:30 PM CT / 2:30 PM MT / 1:30 PM PT / 12:30 PM AKT\nREGISTER HERE\n \n\nSafeguarding Justice: Judicial Independence in a Changing World\n\nThe judiciary is navigating unprecedented challenges and pressures — from the expansion of executive power and politicization of judicial selection processes to public skepticism fueled by declining trust and confidence in our institutions. These forces not only test the judiciary’s independence but also challenge its fundamental role as a guardian of democratic principles and the rule of law.\n\nThis session will explore the evolving landscape of judicial governance\, examining how external pressures and internal vulnerabilities intersect to impact judicial independence and institutional resilience. Through comparative insights\, case studies\, and interactive dialogue\, participants will consider strategies to reinforce judicial integrity\, transparency\, and public confidence.\n\nAttendees will leave with a deeper understanding of the threats facing judicial independence today — and actionable approaches to ensure that courts remain impartial arbiters\, capable of upholding justice even in the most turbulent times.\n\nThe Judicial Independence Committee of the National Association of Women Judges will introduce its new website and upcoming resources for NAWJ members\, which include videos\, animations\, social media messages\, PowerPoint slide decks\, printable handouts\, and more. By using these resources\, NAWJ members and collaborators can message effectively about the importance of preserving an independent judiciary.\n\nLearning Objectives:\n\n 	Analyze how the changing geopolitical landscape threatens judicial independence and institutional resilience.\n 	Explore the relationship between judges\, free speech\, and judicial independence.\n 	Identify concrete communication strategies for safeguarding judicial independence.\n 	Examine the status of public trust and confidence in the courts and the judiciary.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n \n\nSpeakers:\n\nHon. Robin Hudson\, Justice (Ret.)\, North Carolina Supreme Court\n\nAnnette Pitts\, National Education Chair\n\nHon. Christine Walcyzk\, Judge\, North Carolina 10th Judicial District
