Interregional and practice-oriented judicial training in EU civil law
About the project
The project
Within the framework of the Civil Justice Programme the European Union provides co-financing for a series of four decentralised seminars dedicated to the major issues, procedures and instruments in the field of EU civil justice.
The seminars are organised by the Academy of European Law – ERA in partnership with the national judicial schools from the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia.
The concept
The four seminars are addressed to judges from the Visegrad countries. There will be one seminar per partner Member State, with 45 judges from all partner Member States participating in each of them. Each seminar will be autonomous and have a duration of 1,5 days.
Programme
The series will form a continuous training on four major aspects of judicial cooperation in civil matters in the EU. The programme of the seminars will thus cover the following topics:
- Cross-border civil litigation
- Conflict of laws
- European family law
- Cross-border successions
