Judicial training in a globalized world : restoring trust and stability

1. Judicial training and legitimacy of the justice system
2. Judicial training and effectiveness

3. Judicial training and international solidarity

If globalization is characterized by a trend towards both interdependence and uniformity transforming the world into a "village", it also seems made of instability since the end of the cold war.

Such effects are necessarily also suffered by judicial actors, in all countries. Therefore, organizations involved in judicial training, within this new global framework, cannot escape a reflexion concerning meaning and means of judicial training.

The 5th IOJT conference is in such a context a great opportunity in order to provide this debate. Indeed, beyond its purely technical dimension, judicial training also needs to be tackled from a more fundamental point of view:  in which way can it be defined and carried out in order to reach the core of its goal : by ensuring trust towards the judiciary – as an institution and as people - to strengthen judicial authority and thus maintain the Rule of law around the world.

Addressed from this perspective, discussions shall be organized in relation with three key-words, each one of which would ensure effective justice: solidarity, legitimacy and efficiency.
