With a wide variety of activities – including for instance trainings, roundtables, working visits and peer coaching – this project contributes to a better connection and increased trust between the judiciary and society.
In this project, experts from the Netherlands and Ukraine work as a team in a peer-to-peer setting to achieve their shared objectives.
