Training: Strategic litigation in case of violation of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights
What is it about?
The Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union remains underused in human rights litigation. Yet the Charter has the potential to become one of the most useful tools for protecting human rights.
This is why, as part of the RED-Spinel project funded by the European Commission, the Institute for European Studies (IEE-ULB) is offering a training course for legal practitioners to equip them with the skills and knowledge they need to mobilize the Charter in strategic litigation.
The registration is open until 9 September. If you are interested, please send an e-mail to: viktor.zoltan.kazai@ulb.be and andrew.bradley@ulb.be,with your name and “RED-Spinel training” in the subject line.
The course is free of charge and it has been approved by the French- and German-speaking bar associations.
