The first three-day training session for future trainers on implementation of the European Convention on Human Rights was finalised on 24 November 2021. The training was organised based on a newly developed Human rights training curriculum for initial and continuous training of judges and prosecutors, which establishes a structured training based on previously acquired knowledge and skills. The curriculum consists of 12 modules and is primarily intended for initial training for professional associates and newly appointed judicial office holders but it is also applicable for the continuous training. The Standing Commission for Education and Judicial Documentation of the High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council of BiH and members of the management boards of the Centres for Education of Judges and Prosecutors accepted the Curriculum at a presentation held on 9 November 2021.

15 future trainers benefited from the materials developed in the first four modules, which are an integral part of the initial training, as well as from the special adults learning methodology. During the second three-day session, the trainers will have the opportunity to demonstrate their acquired knowledge and developed skills.

This activity is implemented within the project “Initiative for Legal Certainty and Efficient Judiciary in Bosnia and Herzegovina – Phase II”, implemented by the Council of Europe thanks to the voluntary contribution of the Government of Norway.
