The webinar was organized in the context of the European project entitled “EJN-Ita: Building Bridges”, co-funded by the European Commission and coordinated by the Italian Ministry of Justice together with its institutional partners (Scuola Superiore della Magistratura, Consiglio Nazionale del Notariato, the University of Ferrara and the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart). The project aims at disseminating information to legal practitioners on rules (mainly at the EU level) on judicial cooperation in civil and commercial matters, and in general on the work of the European Judicial Network.

The event, organized on the European Day of Justice, constituted the great occasion to launch the portal "Aldricus" (available at https://aldricus.giustizia.it/), which is at the heart of the project. Aldricus is the virtual place where Italian legal professionals (and soon it will be reaching also foreign ones, as we will provide with English and French translations) can find all kind of information on judicial cooperation in civil and commercial matters, also through a Blog which informs about the news in the field.
