The ICJ, OSCE and Group 484 are holding a training on migration and international human rights law starting on Monday 16 September in Zlatibor (Serbia).
The training has been organized by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and the Serbian NGO “Group 484” and will be given by the International Commission of Jurists. It will focus on detention of migrants and human rights; economic, social and cultural rights of migrants; and access to international human rights mechanisms, drawing from the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights, of the UN human rights systems and from EU law. The training will be centered on the ICJ Practitioners Guide no. 6: Migration and International Human Rights Law.
