What is the future of the High Anti-Corruption Court?
Transparency International Ukraine invites lawyers, journalists and representatives of the public authorities to an expert discussion.
The event will take place on 15 May 2019 at 5 p.m. at 49A Volodymyrska Street, INVERIA flow space, Kyiv.
An effective independent judicial system is a mandatory element of any democratic country where the rule of law prevails. Currently, a new judicial institution designed to restore credibility of the judiciary is being established – the High Anti-Corruption Court. The future of the judicial agency depends on transparent mechanisms of its launch, as well as on professionalism and integrity of judges and administrative staff.
Questions to discuss:
- What are the results of selection of HACC judges?
- What still needs to be done to launch the HACC?
- How can we ensure fair and independent justice in high-profile corruption cases?
