The ECBA is glad to announce that the organising committee is now finalising the details for the upcoming Conference on 1 and 2 October 2021 in Berlin. The German Federal Bar (Bundesrechtsanwaltskammer - BRAK) and the Criminal Law Working Group of the German Bar Association (Arbeitsgemeinschaft Strafrecht des Deutscher Anwaltverein) are giving us their full support.

The title of the Conference is: “EPPO meets European Defence: striving for the highest standard of fair proceedings in Europe”. As one of the hot topics of the year is the start of the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO) operations, the Conference will focus on the role of the defence in the scope of EPPO proceedings.

In addition we will have the first edition of the Scott Crosby Human Rights Award in Berlin!

Please see here the draft agenda, registrations will open soon!

Looking very much forward to seeing you this autumn in Berlin!
