Don’t miss an opportunity! The registration is still open!
The Competition is a unique trilingual (English, Portuguese, and Spanish) event established to train law students on how to use the Inter-American human rights legal system as a legitimate forum for redressing human rights violations. Since its inception in 1995, it has trained over 4900 students and faculty participants from over 365 universities from the Americas and beyond. Written on a cutting-edge topic currently debated within the Inter-American system, the hypothetical case operates as the basis of the competition, and students argue the merits of this case by writing legal memoranda and preparing oral arguments for presentation in front of human rights experts acting as the Inter-American Court of Human Rights.
Each Participant Team must complete in full the online registration form, upload the Dean’s Authorization Form to their registration account, and pay the required fee to the Technical Committee prior to the Registration Deadline as noted on the Competition Calendar. The team participation fee for the competition is 1200 USD.
