Fakultetets jusstudenter vant over University College London i årets prosedyrekonkurranse

Fire studenter som går på et av masterprogrammene kom til finalerunden i den prestisjefylte prosedyrekonkurransen 'Telders Moot Court Competition', som årlig finner sted i Fredspalasset, den Haag, Nederland.

UiO-teamet var representert ved jusstudentene Tamar Mochiladze, Synne Ellen Hathway, Militsa Kostova og Janne Haraldsen. Det var 27 deltakende team i den prestisjefylte konkurransen. Hovedveiledere har vært Nobuo Hayashi, Birgit Peters, Joanna Nicholson og Marjan Ajevski.

Telders Moot Court Competition er en prestisjefylt konkurranse, hvor lag fra Europas beste universiteter deltar. Konkurransen arrangeres av Universitetet i Leiden hvert år. Konkurransen fant sted lørdag 28. april.

Synne Ellen Hathway sier i etterkant at dette har gitt henne en flott erfaring å ta med seg videre:

 - It was a fantastic experience to be a part of Telders. Admittedly it was very challenging, but it was worth every minute to have the opportunity of giving a speech to ICJ judges in the Peace Palace. I would strongly recommend other law students to give it a try. I learnt more from this process than any amount of textbook reading I have done!

Overveldet av erfaringen

Janne Haraldsen deler synet:

- I was completely overwhelmed by the whole experience, it requires dedication, time and a lot of work, but you know it was worth every minute once you arrive in The Hague, and meet fellow participants in the Peace Palace! It also gives you the opportunity to get to know various legal professionals in Norway through the process of writing the memorial and practicing the oral legal arguments, and thus gives you the chance to develop your network and your research skills. I would recommend it to all those who are up for a challenge!

Dommerne var Kenneth Keith, Christopher Greenwood og Leonid Skotnikov, som alle har lang erfaring fra ICJ.
