Leiden and Cambridge help create a model course on EU law for Ukraine
Whilst resisting abhorrent Russian aggression, Ukraine has made a clear choice for a future in Europe. With an association agreement already in place, and Ukraine being a candidate for EU membership, Ukrainian lawyers need to be trained in EU law and Ukrainian Law Schools need to develop the capacity to train their students in EU law.
In a project funded by USAID under the Justice for All Activity, The Europa Institute of Leiden Law School and the University of Cambridge have joined forces to develop a Model Course on EU law. In addition, they will create a Teaching Manual and provide training sessions to lecturers in Ukraine to help build Ukrainian capacity in teaching EU law. The course will be developed and piloted with the UCU Law School in Lviv, and will then be rolled out to the 11 leading law schools of Ukraine.
In Lviv, the project is led by Nataliya Haletska. On the Leiden side, the project is executed by Armin Cuyvers, Christa Tobler, Melanie Fink and Joris Larik. On the Cambridge side, the project is led by Markus Gehring.
