Call for participation - Bringing justice closer to citizens and strengthening their trust in the judicial system
Every year on 25 October, on the European Day of Justice, events for European citizens, students and justice professionals are organised across Europe.
The CEPEJ welcomes the commitment of justice professionals, public authorities, international bodies and educational institutions in facilitating access to free legal aid for citizens, organising open doors of courts, information and training sessions, providing platforms for discussion and to ask questions. More recently, new awareness-raising initiatives were launched, including drawing competitions on the theme "draw me your vision of justice" in schools, online plays on detention and individual rights, and production of films based on real stories showing the impact of a criminal conviction with testimonies of judges, prosecutors and young citizens. Historical visits following "the footprints of justice" and online knowledge quizzes were also organised on the legislation and history of the countries concerned.
The CEPEJ invites judicial institutions, associations and public services to inform it of events which will be organised in their country within the framework of the celebration of the 2022 edition of the European Day of Justice, in order to be able to publish them on its website and to raise awareness of them among European citizens, students and professionals of justice (link to the form). To this end, the CEPEJ, with the support of the European Commission, has made posters and images, that can be personalised in 23 languages, available on its website, for use on social networks.
