April 12 - 19, 2010
During the last two conferences, ACJS held exploratory sessions in preparation for the UN Congress in Salvador, Brazil, 12 to 19 April, 2010. Based on these sessions, most of the participants have indicated an interest in the workshop on international criminal justice education for the rule of law. As a result, the workshop will address this topic. The title of ACJS’ workshop for the UN Congress will, therefore, be International Criminal Justice Education for the Rule of Law.
The ACJS will authorize 3-4 individuals to participate in workshop.
Members who are in interested in participating are requested to send the following:
- a 350 to 400 word abstract of their proposed presentation.

- a statement indicating that if selected, you will be able to cover any expenses not covered by the Academy, and you guarantee that you will attend, except in emergency. We need assurance that individuals will not back out once they are selected.
