The course will conclude with a number of case studies on various aspects of the Dublin Regulation.

The European Legal Network on Asylum (ELENA) is a forum of legal practitioners who aim to promote the highest human rights standards for the treatment of refugees, asylum seekers and other persons in need of international protection in their daily individual counselling and advocacy work. The ELENA network extends across most European states and involves some lawyers and legal counsellors. The ELENA network has been running highly successful training courses on topics of international refugee law and the EU asylum acquis for over twenty years.

Short-Term International Electoral Observers: Call for Applications
There are still a few places available. Deadline: 15 October 2013.
EIUC has developed two complementary but independent modules in order to give interested candidates a first but thorough introduction to election observation monitoring system.
The first module will address international observation theory and legal standards and will analyse the practical life of a short-term observer from pre-mission to end of mission activities. The second module is a complementary step for those participants who have attended the first module or the 2012 edition of EIUC training for international observers and will analyse in depth some of the aspects related to an international observation mission. First-time applicants will also be accepted.
EIUC will accept candidatures for each separate module or both combined. Applicants will therefore have a possibility to choose the module which is more closely related to their interests and experience or combine the two of them for a more complete understanding of the topic.
The faculty (http://www.eiuc.org/education/training-for-international-electoral-observers/lecturers.html) is composed of well-known international trainers and professionals with a long standing practical experience in election observation missions within international organisations such as the European Union and the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe.
The programme is run by the European Inter-University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation which is a leading international centre for research and education.
