The School offers a five-day opportunity for 63 future lawyers to enhance their understanding of the implementation of the European Court of Human Rights’ case law at the national level. The group includes students from law schools from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo* and Serbia.
They will benefit from the knowledge and experience of national, regional and international experts and practitioners, but also from the opportunity to establish contacts as the basis for future cooperation. Last day of school is dedicated to moot court and a quiz on human rights. All participants will receive certificates of attendance. Already on the first day they expressed a wish to have this summer school as a recurring regional event.
The activity is ensured in cooperation of the following projects: “Reinforcing capacity of the judiciary to apply European human rights standards at the national level in Bosnia and Herzegovina”, a project supported by the Government of Norway, “Human rights friendly judiciary”, a project implemented in Serbia and supported by Human Rights Trust Fund and “Support to the implementation of European human rights standards and the reform of the Ombudsperson institution”, a project supported by the governments of Norway and Switzerland, and implemented in Kosovo*.
*All references to Kosovo, whether the territory, institutions or population, in this text shall be understood in full compliance with United Nation's Security Council Resolution 1244 and without prejudice to the status of Kosovo.
