Symposium for the media from ex-Yugoslavia |

This was the first large-scale event organised by the newly-established Outreach Programme. A two-day media symposium brought together journalists from the former Yugoslavia for a series of panel discussions. Senior ICTY staff gave presentations on various aspects of the Tribunal’s work, while the journalists were able to put their questions to the presenters. Outreach provided an overview of the work of the Tribunal (from its establishment, structure and organisation to the applicable law and jurisprudence) and information packages. The event was organised by the ICTY Outreach and sponsored by the Coalition for International Justice (CIJ) |
