The call for papers targeted interested scholars (PhD candidates, postdoctoral and established scholars) covering any aspect of the conference topic, such as Convention rights in the fields of climate change, refugee and immigration control, criminal cooperation, membership in the EU or other international organisations, procedural duties to cooperate with the Court in pending procedures or enforcement of judgments.
