About Seminar:
International law encompasses treaties, customary practices, general principles, and
decisions of international courts and tribunals. International law provides a framework
for regulating various aspects of international relations, including diplomacy, trade,
human rights, armed conflict, environmental protection, and more. Given the dynamic
and constantly evolving nature of international law, new issues keep arising and states
have to adapt to changing global realities. Its enforcement can sometimes be challenging
due to the voluntary nature of many international agreements and the complexities of
international relations. International legal developments are often influenced by
diplomatic negotiations, state practices, and decisions of international courts and
tribunals. International justice mechanisms are important tools for preventing impunity
and promoting a culture of accountability and respect for human rights at the global
level. However, they also face challenges such as limited jurisdiction, political
considerations, and difficulties in enforcement. The potential adverse impacts of these
challenges have become the subject of regulatory attention in a number of countries.
Commonly, the regulatory response has been focused on the strategies rather than their
implementation in the countries. The pursuit of international justice requires the
collaboration of states, international organizations, civil society, and legal professionals
to achieve its goals.
