The 17th of July commemorates the anniversary of the Rome Statute adoption on 17 July 1998 and the foundation of the International Criminal Court in the Hague, the first-ever permanent body of international justice that has jurisdiction directly under international law to prosecute the most serious crimes.

In order to commemorate the anniversary, CCL together with partners organizes a Ukrainian International Criminal Justice Week (18-22 July 2022) discussion focusing in particular on the implementation of the Statute, as well as on achievements, best practices and challenges in that regard.

This Conference brings together eminent lawyers, researchers, experts, state servants and representatives of international and regional organizations and civil society.

17 July unites people all over the world who wish to strengthen justice, promote victims’ rights, and help prevent crimes that threaten the peace, security and well-being of the world.

This day is also a reminder to honor the work of individuals working to advocate the fundamental human rights of victims affected by criminal acts.
