Background

The Human Rights Law Centre and Methods and Data Institute at the University of Nottingham announce a multi-disciplinary conference entitled `The International Criminal Court and the State’.

The conference will take place on Friday 9th November, 2007 in the Senate Chamber of the University of Nottingham’s Trent Building.

The conference will bring together experts from the fields of law, politics and international relations as well as practitioners from the Court, civil society, states and the International Criminal Court Legal Tools Partners.

The conference will set in context our work with the Court, focusing on issues of implementation and the impact of new technologies in the Legal Tools Project on international criminal justice.
