Aimed at students of Law and International Relations, professors of Public International Law and International Criminal Law, jurists, professors, judges or lawyers. Among the objectives of the activity is to evaluate, through a rigorous academic analysis, the effectiveness of the International Criminal Court in the situation in Venezuela. According to Soranib Hernández, professor of Public International Law and organizer of the event, "the field of knowledge about the role of International Criminal Courts, their regulatory framework, or how conflict resolution means can provide solutions when justice is inefficient" will be expanded. . “Throughout the sessions we will try to identify how the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court determines the veracity and authenticity of the sources, the tests and evidence, the origin of the initiation and continuation of the investigation, the Rome Statute, the protection of human rights or identify crimes against humanity in the light of International Criminal Law” explains the organizer.
To analyze the subject, the Seminar will be attended by Dr. Antonio Pastor Palomar, coordinator of the Area and Professor of International Public Law URJC; Soranib Hernández de Deffendini, associate professor of Public International Law at the URJC; and Dr. Simón Pedro Deffendini, associate professor of Public International Law at the URJC. There will also be an outstanding presentation by Dr. Concepción Escobar, Professor of Public International Law; Víctor Rodríguez Cedeño, Former Ambassador of Venezuela; and Blas Jesús Imbroda, Doctor of Law.
The moderation of the debate will be led by Dr. Pilar Trinidad, General Secretary and Professor of Public International Law at the URJC; and Adrián Sabido, associate professor in Public International Law at the URJC.
This panel of experts will present a doctrinal discussion on the interaction of the foreign criminal jurisdiction with the International Criminal Courts in the fight against impunity for international crimes, the state of the "Venezuela I Situation" in the investigation phase at the International Criminal Court , the role of the ICC Pre-Trial Chamber and Prosecutor in the possible resumption of the investigation, the possible attribution of individual criminal responsibilities, and the role of victims of crimes against humanity in the investigation phase.
"We hope to be able to carry out a second exhibition later to continue dealing with these issues" concludes Hernández.
