We are delighted to invite you to enroll in the English-taught Online Certificate Program, „From Warfare to Lawfare: Legal Responses to Atrocity Crimes and Other Violations of International Law“, hosted by the Faculty of Law at the National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy in Ukraine (NaUKMA).

Russia’s aggression in 2014, followed by the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 highlighted the significance of the issues related to International Criminal & Humanitarian law.
