Online Mini-Forum “Rule of Law – Legal Insights”
On 5 March 2025, we hosted the online mini-forum “Rule of Law – Legal Insights”, which brought together legal experts and stakeholders to discuss Rule of Law challenges in different countries. Specifically, key rule of law challenges related to the functioning of independent authorities, judicial independence and separation of powers, and fundamental rights with a focus on vulnerable groups (asylum seekers and LGBTQI+) were discussed.
The LIGHT Project Comes to an End
As the LIGHT project enters its final phase, we are proud of the collective efforts of our partners from Greece, Hungary, Bulgaria, Poland and Romania, experts, trainers and all the institutions involved, who have contributed to raising awareness, equipping legal professionals with vital skills and strengthening the rule of law throughout Europe.
We are also grateful to the lawyers, students and participants who engaged in our training sessions and project activities, making this initiative truly impactful. As the project comes to an end, its legacy continues – our resources and insights will remain available to support and empower those committed to defending the rule of law.
