Our Group

Our group has been founded on 9/12/2010 in the framework of the VIII Congress of IACL, on the common initiative of Victor Bazan, Sandra Liebenberg and George Katrougalos.
Its main aim is to develop a network and a forum for constitutionalists interested in social rights from countries throughout the world. Among its activities will be, inter alia, the development of comparative research projects on topics to be decided collectively, advocacy and public Interest litigation on social rights issues and further involvement to related activities of IACL.

A Workshop?


It seems that we have a problem of initial inertia, that doesn’t allow us to start over, despite the good will of all of us.  


Martin Scheinin has suggested to me, based on the good practices of the Group on Terrorism, that another idea would be to start planning a workshop. Its theme could be what I have suggested as our first internet project, i.e. a comparative approach of various aspects of the judicial remedies and methods of protection of social rights.

If we embrace this idea, maybe we could start exchange texts by EMail and then we will have the time to finalize our ideas about organisational issues, such as the place of the Workshop, eventual funding etc.

Other ideas are, of course, much welcome.
