International Judicial Cooperation in Criminal Matters: Practical Case-Based Simulation on Protection of Financial Interests of the EU
This training is based on a ‘learn-by-doing’ methodology and the simulation of the different stages of EU judicial cooperation in the fight against cross-border crime. Participants will work on the basis of a case inspired by real facts and involving both national and cross-border judicial cooperation.
This training will require strong interaction between the participants forming the 3 different national Core Groups (CGs) from the following member States: Lithuania, Sweden, and Finland. Participants will comment on the practical cases according to their national legal systems and, most importantly, learn about their colleagues’ systems in counterpart Member States, thereby promoting EU
cooperation and mutual trust when executing a European Arrest Warrant or requesting Mutual Legal Assistance. Participants will be assisted by international and national experts, EJN contact points and EUROJUST representatives.
A comprehensive overview of the work of EUROJUST and the EJN, and their contribution to international judicial cooperation in criminal matters, will be also be addressed.
The working language of the training is English but participants may use their national language when discussing the case within their national group.
