Dear network,
We are pleased to announce that ELSA Greece will be hosting the Regional Rounds of the Helga Pedersen International Moot Court Competition. The regional rounds of the 10th edition of the competition will be held in Athens, on March 10-12, 2022, jointly organized with ELSA Athens.
Since 2013 the Helga Pedersen Moot Court Competition (formerly known as “European Human Rights Moot Court Competition”) has been taking place at the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) in Strasbourg in collaboration with the Council of Europe. It is a simulation of the procedure of individual complaint to the European Court of Human Rights and it aims to familiarize Law students with issues pertaining to human rights’ protection.
Following its 10th anniversary, the competition was renamed “Helga Pedersen Moot Court Competition” as a tribute to the first woman judge of the European Court of Human Rights.
Stay tuned to see how you can also help with the organization of the competition!
