Thank you so much!

The amount of participants to the Law Clinic of last Friday, 10 November 2023, was great!

Indeed, it was an enthusiastic response for a broad and complex topic such as Cooperation on Justice and Home Affairs, introduced and discussed during the Law Clinic.

An album of the pictures of the day is available at this LINK.

The next Law Clinic activity is scheduled for the upcoming 17 November: stay tuned as more info will follow!

The Law Clinic EU Cooperation in Justice and Home Affairs: Knowledge aims to be an in-depth course aimed at acquiring basic knowledge of the current European Area of Freedom, Security and Justice with a technical-practical approach on: the origins of cooperation and its evolution up to its formalisation in the Treaties; the different forms of integration and cooperation; regulatory instruments and the role of agencies in the context of current transnational relationships; border control, asylum and immigration policies; judicial cooperation in criminal matters and police cooperation.

To this end, we are pleased to announce the first lecture entitled “The Features of EU Cooperation on Justice and Home Affairs (JHA): Evolution and Current Legal Framework” that will be held by Prof. Teresa Russo, EUVALWEB Chair Holder on 10 November 2023 in Room 1 of the Department of Legal Sciences of the University of Salerno, from 2.30 P.M. onward.

It’s an honor beyond words to have been the focus of a press release published on the institutional website of the European External Action Service (EEAS) by the Delegation of the European Union to Montenegro: https://www.eeas.europa.eu/…/transnational-crime-poses…
EU indeed did cover the second Final Conference of the Chair “Promoting Public Awareness of the Fight Against Transnational Crimes, the Role of Police and Judicial Cooperation and Respect for Fundamental Rights” held at the University of Donja Gorica (Podgorica, Montenegro). The press release itself provides insights on the guests, including the EUVALWEB Chair, Prof. Teresa Russo, and fully captures the spirit of cooperation and energy, dynamism that distinguished the event.
The daily efforts put up by the EUVALWEB Chair, in this case as recognized by the European Union and pushed by our Balkan partners too, can at this point only become more resolved.
Thanks to the EU Delegation to Montenegro for the much appreciated coverage!
With the guided tour of the city of Salerno and the meeting with the Erasmus Office, we closed our Late-July Agenda on Planning Euvalweb Educational, Didactic and Scientific Activities on What Role for Science, Technology and Innovation in Promoting EU Studies?, which in the framework of the activities of the Jean Monnet EUVALWEB Chair, and specifically of the EUVALWEB Legal Observatory, hosted Professors Alba Gërdeci, Eglantina Farruku, Endri Papajorgji and Gelanda Shkurtaj from the Department of Law of the EPOKA University of Tirana, Albania.
These meetings were also fruitful in terms of results with interesting proposals for the continuation of teaching and scientific cooperation activities between the University of Salerno and EPOKA University of Tirana.
Prof. Teresa Russo expresses her utmost satisfaction and thanks for the hosted colleagues!

The day of 19 July was entirely dedicated to an in-depth study of European Union law. In particular, in the morning round table, UNISA DSG Professors discussed with Albanian Professors from the Department of Law of EPOKA University of Tirana the interdisciplinary aspects of EU law, exploring its traces in ancient organisational models and looking at the imminent and future perspectives resulting from the ecological, digital, and energy transition process currently taking place at international and European level.
In the debate, interesting lines of research emerged that will be further explored in the next editions of the Jean Monnet Chair EUVALWEB and within the EUVALWEB Legal Observatory.

In the afternoon, the meeting with Italian and Albanian students allowed us to hear their views on the accession of the Western Balkans in general, and Albania in particular, to the European Union. Their desire to feel European emerged strongly from their reflections, promoting one of the main goals of the Jean Monnet EUVALWEB Chair: AWARENESS!

Prof. Teresa Russo, as Chair Holder of the Euvalweb Jean Monnet Chair, expresses her heartfelt thanks to all the professors and students who took part, as well as her firm academic and scientific commitment to bring the peoples of the Western Balkans into the ‘mindset’ of the European Union.

Prof. Teresa Russo, as the Chair Holder of the EUVALWEB Jean Monnet Chair, expresses her warmest appreciation for the work and dissertation discussion of the two Albanian students, Andrea Kokomeci and Egla Leci.

Their dissertations, conducted within the framework of the Jean Monnet Chair EUVALWEB and the EUVALWEB Legal Observatory, concerned the adaptation of the Albanian legal system to the EU acquis. In particular, Egla Leci’s thesis dealt with “The Right to Privacy in Albania. Its compliance with the EU GDPR and Current Challenges”, while Andrea Kokomeci’s thesis dealt with “The impact of EU commercial Law on the Economic Transformation of Albania: A Legal Analysis of the Business Environment and the Establishment of Legal Entities”.

This is an important milestone that closes the course of study of the two Albanian students with top marks, after a significant 6-month training activity within the EUVALWEB Legal Observatory and the Jean Monnet Chair EUVALWEB.

Prof. Teresa Russo would like to thank the degree examination committee composed of Albanian Professors Alba Gërdeci, Eglantina Farruku, Endri Papajorgji, Gelanda Shkurtaj of EPOKA University of Tirana (Albania) and Prof. Rossana Palladino, DSG, UNISA.

A special thanks goes to Prof. Heliona Miço for her supervision and elaboration activity for the thesis of Egla Leci.

Also our thanks goes the EUVALWEB Tutors, Dr. Stefano Busillo and Emanuele Vannata for supporting the students in their research activities necessary for the writing of their thesis.

We are really happy to have contributed to the training of young Albanians and future citizens of the EU family. Many congratulations!!!
