Summer School for Junior Magistrates – Sovata, Romania, July 7-13, 2007
July 7, 2007 @ 8:00 am - July 13, 2007 @ 5:00 pm
This year’s Summer School for Junior Magistrates in Sovata, Romania, co-organized with the Romanian Ministry of Justice with the support of SPOC Secretariat, SEEPAG, and USAID, was envisaged to promote knowledge and regional cooperation in the field of anti-corruption, as well as experience sharing among magistrates from SPAI member countries. Summer School for Junior Magistrates was characterized as being a great success given the fact that in addition to the lectures held by seasoned trainers from various anti-corruption institutions, judges and prosecutors from SPAI countries were given the opportunity to share their experience and identify problem areas that they encounter in their everyday work environment.
The training for the magistrates was designed to provide information and raise issues regarding international standards in anticorruption, especially the implementation of the relevant UN, CoE and OECD conventions; anti-corruption policies and preventive measures; EU experience regarding the international judicial cooperation on criminal matters (EUROJUST, European Judicial Network, EUROPOL, OLAF); and reform of the judiciary and anticorruption challenges of the EU accession process.
All of the participants successfully passed the final written examination. The graduation ceremony was honored by the presence of Romanian Minister of Justice, Tudor Chiuariu, who personally handed in the certificates to the participants and continued the graduation ceremony with the official dinner.
