About

The seminar will present 50 regional defense attorneys with the recent jurisprudence of the ICTY relating to the modes of liability and the elements of crime. Participants will also be trained on the use of the jurisprudence before the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The training will be delivered by two experts of the ICTY’s Office of the Prosecutors.

This seminar is a follow-up activity to the European Union-funded War Crimes Justice Project (WCJP), which was completed in October 2011. The project was implemented by ODIHR in partnership with the ICTY and the UN Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute as well as OSCE field operations.
