PROGRAMME
Only the morning courses will be offered online. These are in the form of lectures in English or French, with simultaneous translation into the other language. Attendees will have access in advance to an e-learning environment allowing them to benefit the most from the courses.
The afternoon programme, including seminars, guest lectures, the Directed Studies sessions and doctoral networking meetings, aimed at stimulating interaction between attendees, professors and other invited personalities, will not be offered for practical reasons relating to the specificity of what constitutes a full session in The Hague, which simply cannot be reproduced online but has to be experienced personally.
The programme consists of a General Course and a series of Special Courses. For an explanation of the difference between the General Course and the Special Courses click here. Attendees will be able to follow three lectures of 50 minutes each per day from Monday to Friday throughout the three weeks of the Public International Law or the Private International Law session, or throughout both sessions.
DAILY TIME TABLE
Live broadcast – 09:20 hrs. – The Hague time (GMT +2).
- 09:20 – 10:10: Special Course
- 10:30 – 11:20: Special Course
- 11:40 – 12:30: General Course
N.B.: The first and the last day of the courses will start later and include a few extra videos, such as the Opening and Closing Speech of the Secretary-General, and will therefore be somewhat longer.
The daily lecture sessions are offered in blocks and include breaks. Each daily session can be followed by registered attendees either live on Zoom at The Hague local time, or at any other time on the e-learning platform, where the replay of the daily courses will be made available for the duration of five weeks after their initial broadcast.
This means that an attendee who is in a vastly different time zone from The Hague will, for example, be able to view the lectures as of Monday, July 8th (Public International Law) or July 29st (Private International Law), at any time of his/her preference until August 12th or September 2nd, respectively, and so on.
