The course, to be finalized by the end of 2017, will be addressed to both legal professionals (judges, lawyers and prosecutors) and medical and other health-care professionals. These two professional groups have been selected because of their responsibility for the implementation of Human Rights in Biomedicine. It will aim at raising awareness and developing competencies as well as procedural and practical skills allowing legal and medical professionals to put into practice the acquired knowledge in concrete situations.
