Description
In order to provide law students with an opportunity to gain practical experience in the field, the European Law students’ Association (ELSA), has launched the 2nd edition of the European Human Rights Moot Court Competition in cooperation with the Council of Europe.
The competition, which simulates the procedure of complaints to the European Court of Human Rights, is open to all students from ELSA countries as well as from countries that are members of the Council of Europe.
The simulation of a court trial is often divided into two phases: the written phase and the oral phase. In the written part students draft submissions or memorials on behalf of the applicant and the respondent.
The written phase leads to the oral phase which means simulations of court hearings where students represent the applicant and the respondent. The teams will examine a fictive case and draft written submissions for each party.
The teams will be evaluated based on their written admissions and the best 16 teams will compete in the European final at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France.
Prize
The winning team will be awarded with a traineeship at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg for a period of one month.
Eligibility
The competition is open to all law students in ELSA Member Countries (see list HERE) as well as Council of Europe Member Countries (see list HERE).

Dear gvancachaligava,
Once you register, the organizers will send you further details. You should wait to hear from them and then direct more specific questions to them, as Mladiinfo is not the organizer and we cannot provide you with concrete answers about the program.
Kind regards,
Mladiinfo team
