From 30 June to 2 July 2026, the Nuremberg Academy will host a joint training on “The Investigation and Prosecution of Core International Crimes”, organised by the European Judicial Training Network (EJTN) and the Genocide Prosecution Network Secretariat (GPNS), in Nuremberg,
This introductory training is addressed to criminal judges and prosecutors across the European Union and will provide participants with the opportunity to learn more about the legal systems and investigative approaches in different EU Member States.
This training activity will combine lectures with workshops and plenary debriefings aimed at improving the participants’ practical skills, pursuant to a ‘learn-by-doing’ methodology. The event will conclude with a moot court session, where participants will take the role of the prosecution, defence or chamber in discussing a practical case.
Taking part in a training within the historic premises of the Academy will enable participants to learn more about the Nuremberg Trials, in particular by visiting the Memorium Nuremberg Trials and the historic Courtroom 600 and understanding the relevance of the Nuremberg Principles today. (ec)
