The Sir Ninian Stephen Lecture is an annual event held by the Law School of the University of Newcastle, Australia. The first lecture was delivered by former Governor-General of Australia Sir Ninian Stephen in 1993, to celebrate the establishment of the Bachelor of Laws program at the University. This event continues under his name, and is generally held in the early weeks of the academic year. The 2016 lecture was delivered on 29 April 2016 by Justice Virginia Bell of the High Court of Australia titled "Equality, proportionality and Dignity: The Guiding Principles for a Just Legal system."
