Join us for a virtual event that will bring together experts passionate about judiciary systems, rule of law and data.
Register yourself for webinar Building Trust in the Rule of Law – Experiences from Slovakia and the Netherlands: https://forms.gle/M1yjm1ohK4UY4ASg8
Throughout this virtual event our speakers will explore various discussion points, including:
The Netherlands boasts an impressive 80% trust rating in its judiciary and police among survey respondents. How was such a high level of credibility achieved?
Our country has an ongoing debate about the extent to which judges should engage with the media. Do you believe judges should publicly explain their rulings?
Slovakia has both a special prosecutor and a specialized court dedicated to handling severe crimes. Yet, these institutions are currently under scrutiny for potential political manipulation. How can we establish law enforcement agencies that project true independence?
The Dutch parliament also enjoys considerable trust, even though this trust also shows a slight decline. As we approach elections, concerns about result manipulation have surfaced. How can a system be structured to safeguard the democratic foundation of the state despite changing governing parties?
Populism is a pervasive global challenge across the political spectrum. How is the Netherlands effectively countering this phenomenon?
