Fundamental Rights in Europe Working Group
The Fundamental Rights in Europe Working Group provides a forum for researchers to discuss issues related to the protection of fundamental rights in Europe. Recent case-law will stand at the centre of every session, in particular decisions rendered by the Court of Justice of the European Union. Our ambition is to keep track of the latest case law developments and to contribute to research on European fundamental rights protection carried out in various forms at the Law Department.
The Working Group invites guest speakers once a month to give a short presentation and assessment of the relevant case(s), which will be followed by a general (informal and open-minded) discussion.
The working group will shortly set up a blog on which recent case-law will be presented in order to facilitate the debate on the latest developments in the field.
On the blog, the working group will also publish information on the monthly events, the speakers and the case or cases that will be discussed.
The supporting professors are Loïc Azoulai , Claire Kilpatrick , and Miguel Maduro .
