41 judges, prosecutors and judicial staff enhanced their knowledge on international standards on prohibition of discrimination, as well as on the national practice in terms of non-discrimination, during two training sessions held on 16 and 17 February 2023. The participants discussed about the international standards on the prohibition of discrimination and analysed discrimination cases examined by the European Court of Human Rights. The training sessions also focused on the national remedies for combating discrimination. Specifically, participants learned about the activity of the Equality Council and had the opportunity to share their opinion and experience of dealing with cases of discrimination in their professional activity.
This training was carried out jointly with the National Institute of Justice within the framework of the project ”Strengthening the capacities of the justice sector actors to deliver justice in line with European standards, in particular to fight discrimination in the Republic of Moldova” funded by the European Union and the Council of Europe and implemented by the Council of Europe in their Partnership for Good Governance II (2019-2022).
