Every year on 25 October, on the European Day of Justice, events for European citizens, students and justice professionals are organised across Europe.
The CEPEJ supports the commitment of justice professionals, public authorities, international bodies and educational institutions to bring justice closer to citizens, inform them about their rights and promote the work of the Council of Europe and the European Commission, for example through trial simulations, information sessions, training and seminars.
In 2023, new awareness-raising initiatives dedicated to the European Day of Justice were launched in 6 European countries, including a game about the development and future of the rule of law, a podcast and a conference about the use of artificial intelligence in the judiciary, or the publication of the online animated series regarding court procedures.
The CEPEJ invites judicial institutions, associations and public services to inform it of events which will be organised in their country within the framework of the celebration of the 2024 edition of the European Day of Justice, in order to be able to publish them on its website and to raise awareness of them among European citizens, students and professionals of justice (link to the form
