Pictures of the day – 4 December 2025

From the standpoint of public authorities, the seminar on the European Union’s security strategy was a success.

The students listened with keen interest to the remarks of Professor Virgilio D’Antonio, Rector of the University of Salerno; Giancarlo Conticchio, Police Commissioner of the Province of Salerno; and Alfonso Mignone, an expert in maritime law, on security on land and at sea.

“We need more Europe” was the response given when a student enquired about the scope of the Union’s security-related regulatory engagement.

Finally, the certificate given to the students and Young Observers of the EUVALWEB Legal Observatory was a moment of joy and camaraderie.

Investigating and Proving Contemporary Forms of Crime: Scientific Approaches, XV Archibald Reiss Days – 30-31 October 2025

On Thursday, October 30, Professor Teresa Russo, Director of the EUVALWEB Legal Observatory, was one of the keynote speakers at the plenary session of the XV Archibald Reiss Days International Scientific Conference on “Investigating and Proving Contemporary Forms of Crime: Scientific Approaches,” organised by the University of Criminal Investigation and Police Studies of Belgrade with the support of the Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Science, Technological Development, and Innovation of the Republic of Serbia in cooperation with a number of universities from Europe.

Professor Russo, also a member of the Scientific Committee of the Conference, discussed in her presentation the challenges of fighting corruption through a systemic/strategic approach in European Union law. In particular, she highlighted how different national traditions and legislation impact the adoption of harmonised legislation, which, however, contains clear gaps, especially in terms of preventive measures.

EUVALWEB is honoured by this opportunity, stressing with satisfaction the remarkable results that have ensued from the ongoing cooperation with the University of Criminal Investigation and Police Studies of Belgrade.

Acknowledgements of the Chair Holder & Pictures of the Day – 18 September 2025

In my capacity as Chair Holder of the Jean Monnet Chair “Promoting Public Awareness on Enlargement Policy, EU Values, and the Western Balkans’ Accession” (EUVALWEB), I wish to express my contentment with the outcomes of yesterday’s conference. To sum up, even though we may not be facing a new chapter in the Union’s enlargement, the insightful presentations have shown us the path and the solutions to really start writing one.

Profs. Sara Poli, Maria Eugenia Bartoloni, Christophe Hillion, Marco Evola, Alessandro Petti, Cristina Contartese, and Anna Pau have my sincere gratitude.

I am grateful to the members of the Chair’s teaching staff, all colleagues, and professionals from the Western Balkans and Europe who have contributed to the scientific quality of our teaching and research activities over the past three years.

I would also like to express my gratitude to the Albanian, Erasmus, and Department of Legal Studies students who have attended my lectures and actively participated in the workshops over the past three years in order to learn about and comprehend the Union’s enalargement as well as the current global geopolitical landscape through the lens of enlargement. They have shown exceptional dedication, skill, and commitment.

Finally, I would like to extend my profound appreciation to Drs. Stefano Busillo and Emanuele Vannata, EUVALWEB tutors, and Dr. Elisabetta Lambiase, the supervisor of the Young Observers of the EUVALWEB Legal Observatory, for their invaluable contributions to our endeavours.

Although our project is concluding, we will continue our collective efforts as scholars and researchers.
