SUMMARY:Rule of Law Training
DESCRIPTION:The Matra Rule of Law Training Programme is designed to strengthen institutional capacity in the field of rule of law within government organisations in Albania\, Armenia\, Bosnia and Herzegovina\, Georgia\, Kosovo\, Moldova\, Montenegro\, North Macedonia\, Serbia\, Türkiye\, and Ukraine. Each year we offer (hybrid) training courses\, providing participants with insights into best practices across a wide range of rule of law topics. \n\n\n\nThrough interactive sessions that blend theory with practical skills\, as well as study visits\, our programme equips policy advisors\, members of the judiciary and other civil servants working in the government and justice sectors with the knowledge and skills needed to drive reforms within their respective countries. \n\n\n\nIn addition\, by taking part in the training programme\, participants become part of a large international network of alumni\, lecturers and public institutions in the Netherlands and in the target countries. This network serves as a platform for learning\, exchange and collaboration. \n\n\n\nThe Matra Rule of Law Training Programme is designed and delivered by the Netherlands Helsinki Committee\, Leiden Law School and The Hague Academy for Local Governance. It is financed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands\, and administered by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) on behalf of the Ministry. For questions relating to the Matra Rule of Law Training Programme please contact us via matrarolt@nhc.nl \n\n\n\nThe following hybrid training courses are on offer in 2024-2025: \n\n\n\nIn 2024-2025 the following hybrid training courses are offered: \n\n\n\n1. Administration of Justice (full brochure) \n\n\n\nThis training will focus on the “judicial” dimension of Chapter 23. The training will focus on the fundamental principles of judicial organisation under the EU acquis – with a special focus on the case law of the EU Court of Justice – and groundbreaking case law of the European Court of Human Rights. Participants will also learn about best practices in the administration of justice in the Netherlands\, and the organisation and functioning of the judiciary. Participants will be introduced to the concept of independence and impartiality as developed in the robust case law of the European Court of Human Rights. Participants will discuss the legal framework regarding the principles of accountability and independence and the application of these principles; judicial culture as a backdrop against which courts function; the role of judicial councils and the role of precedent in legal practice. \n\n\n\nThis training will be held online from 02 to 13 December 2024 and will be held in-person from 20-31 January 2025. Applications are now closed. \n\n\n\n2. Integrity of Civil Servants (full brochure) \n\n\n\nPublic integrity is a core value of the European vision on good governance. It is essential for a well-functioning and transparent government\, and an important precondition for economic growth. This training will help participants developing integrity policies\, in order to ensure transparency\, accountability\, efficiency and ethical behaviour within government institutions. \n\n\n\nThis training will focus on three pillars of public integrity as defined by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD): system\, culture and accountability. Participants will discuss international and European standards\, while also learning about examples and practices from the Netherlands. How are integrity policies designed\, implemented and enforced? \n\n\n\nThis training will be held online from 27 January – 07 February 2025 and will be held in-person from 10 – 21 March 2025. \n\n\n\n3. Public Procurement (full brochure) \n\n\n\nThe acquis on public procurement includes general principles of transparency\, free movement of goods\, and non-discrimination. In addition\, specific EU rules apply for the coordination of awarding public works contracts\, services and supplies. Government contracts are of great economic and strategic importance and it is therefore necessary that systems are designed in such a way that conflicts of interest and corruption are prevented as much as possible. \n\n\n\nWith this training\, we want to increase knowledge of European regulations in the field of public procurement by looking at Dutch and international experience with regard to legitimacy and integrity of the purchasing process. Strong\, independent institutions protect the integrity of the system. This prevents inappropriate political or economic influence. This training also pays attention to gender responsive and transformative public procurement\, showing casing how public procurement can contribute to increasing gender equality. \n\n\n\nThis training will be held online from 27 January – 07 February 2025 and will be held in-person from 10 – 21 March 2025. \n\n\n\n4. Management of Public Services (full brochure) \n\n\n\nThis training addresses the question of how the public sector can be better organised to enable good public services. We look at the public sector from the perspective of multi-level governance: cooperation and coordination between multiple layers of government\, non-government actors and citizens for effective and efficient public services. Challenges surrounding decentralisation and privatisation (including public-private partnerships) are discussed\, including the financing of services. We also discuss the potential of digitalisation to make services more efficient\, transparent and accessible\, as well as accompanying challenges – for example regarding privacy\, data security and the digital divide. We discuss the importance of good personnel policy for well-functioning public institutions and services. We look at issues such as merit-based selection and promotion\, transparent performance assessments and offering training and development opportunities to government officials. \n\n\n\nThis training will be held online from 12 to 23 May 2025\, and in-person from 09 to 20 June 2025. Click here to apply. \n\n\n\n5. Management of Borders (full brochure) \n\n\n\nAll Matra countries share common challenges when it comes to migration\, asylum\, border management and organised transnational crime. The Western Balkans and Turkey are located on the crossroads of migration routes from conflict areas to EU member states\, while Armenia\, Georgia\, Moldova and Ukraine share common challenges in the field of border management and adjusting national legislation in order to meet the EU acquis. \n\n\n\nIn this training\, participants will strengthen their knowledge of EU asylum law and its interpretation by European courts. Sessions will be dedicated to the EU acquis\, including the EU return and readmission policy. In the field of border management\, participants will learn about Schengen legislation and the mandate of Frontex\, whiles sessions will also be held on the fight against organised crime. \n\n\n\nThe training will be held online from 12 to 23 May 2025 and in-person from 09 to 20 June 2025. Click here to apply. \n\n\n\n6. Human Rights \n\n\n\nDepending on the selected participants\, this training can be used in a number of ways to address fundamental and human rights. All government policy initiatives must be monitored for their impact on (human) rights and there must be mechanisms for monitoring and correcting practices that conflict with these rights. This training looks at mechanisms and policies that can be used to (better) safeguard internationally agreed human rights standards. Together with Dutch institutions active in this area\, we will exchange practical experiences with the participants and encourage them to reflect on the situation in their own country. \n\n\n\nThis training will be held online from 15 to 26 September 2025\, and in-person from 6 to 17 October 2025. \n\n\n\n7. (Functioning of) Democratic Institutions \n\n\n\nWell-functioning institutions that guarantee democracy\, the rule of law and human rights are essential for preserving the EU’s identity and values. They must guarantee and safeguard fundamental rights and freedoms. In this training we not only look at international standards (the role of the Venice Commission and the Council of Europe)\, but also at practice: how can civil servants themselves contribute to democratic policy and decision-making and increasing confidence in the government? How can organisations work more transparently? And how can the distance between the government and the citizen be reduced? \n\n\n\nThis training will be held online from 10 to 21 November 2025\, and in-person from 01 to 12 December 2025. \n\n\n\nThese training was held in 2023-2024: \n\n\n\nJudicial Cooperation \n\n\n\nIn this training we look at the importance of collaboration within the justice sector\, both at a national and international level. We will tailor the programme specifically based on the sectors in which the selected participants work. For example\, we look at the ways in which international cooperation between judges works (recognition of foreign judgments\, transfer of suspects). Regarding the enforcement of sentences\, we look at chain cooperation\, in which the fundamental values and standards of the EU are central. For example\, within criminal law\, the right balance must be found between punishment\, reintegration and the protection of victims and society. When it comes to punishment\, we will highlight the value of alternative sanctions to prison sentences. Within this training we pay special attention to cooperation between civil servants and civil society\, because Dutch chain cooperation within criminal law between government parties and civil society is highly developed and is often a revelation for experts from other countries. \n\n\n\nThis training was held online from 11 to 22 November 2024\, and in-person from 1 to 14 December 2024. \n	Register Here This link opens in a new tab\n	\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Advancing Climate Justice Through Inclusive Decision-Making
DESCRIPTION:Climate justice requires inclusive decision-making that represents the voices of those most affected by climate change\, such as Indigenous Peoples\, young people and affected communities from the Global South. However\, a lack of transparency and meaningful participation in climate negotiations often leaves these groups sidelined or reduced to token representation. How can we ensure that climate policies and decisions reflect the lived experiences and expertise of those on the frontlines of the crisis? \n\n\n\nPartos and the The Hague Humanity Hub are organising a learning session to find answers to this question. This event will bring together The Hague Climate Justice Hub and the Partos Climate Justice CoP to promote learning and collaboration between different organisations active in the climate justice space.  The session will take place in-person at the The Hague Humanity Hub and online via Zoom. \n\n\n\nIn this engaging learning session\, we will hear from guest speakers who bring diverse perspectives on Climate Justice to the table\, ranging from local activists to regional Climate Justice initiatives. What makes Climate Justice so crucial? What are good practices for meaningful participation? What happens when the perspectives of those at the frontlines of the crisis are central in decision making? And what role can NGOs play in advancing this cause? During the session\, we will explore the work of these key actors\, and following their presentations\, we’ll open the floor for a discussion on best practices\, challenges and concrete actions. \n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\n–Jacob Baraza\, Founder/CEO and Water & Climate Governance Expert at Water Practice International \n\n\n\n-Chautuileo Tranamil\, Co-Founder Indigenous Liberation Movement \n\n\n\n–Anyse Pereira\, Programme Manager\, and Climate\, Biodiversity and Natural Resources Governance Consultant \n\n\n\n–Charles Mpoyi\, Tropenbos DRC and the Green Livelihoods Alliance \n\n\n\n–Charles Mwangi\, Head of Programmes at PACJA\, the Panafrican Climate Justice Alliance

SUMMARY:The New Fight Against Corruption
DESCRIPTION:New U.S. policies threatening the enforcement of whistleblower and anti-corruption laws demand new tactics for fighting corruption. In this event\, U.S. whistleblower experts from leading whistleblower law firm\, Kohn\, Kohn & Colapinto LLP (KKC)\, as well as the National Whistleblower Center (NWC) will address the new realities and necessary solutions. \n\n\n\nSince 1988\, the NWC and KKC have led the development of U.S. whistleblower and anti-corruption laws that have been used to enforce anti-bribery and money laundering laws worldwide. They are the attorneys behind some of the largest whistleblower cases\, including Howard Wilkinson’s exposure of a $230 billion Russian money laundering scheme and Bradley Birkenfeld’s exposure of a $780 million tax fraud scheme by UBS. \n\n\n\nThe National Whistleblower Center has been at the forefront of developing and advocating for powerful anti-corruption laws like the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act\, the Dodd-Frank Act\, and the Anti-Money Laundering Whistleblower Improvement Act. These laws have been utilized by whistleblowers worldwide and resulted in billions of dollars in recoveries. \n\n\n\nForeign governments and anti-corruption civil societies have long relied on the U.S. framework as a deterrent\, regulation\, and enforcement for corruption. With these effective U.S. laws now under attack\, it is vital that governments and civil society leaders concerned about transnational corruption work urgently to strengthen their anti-corruption and whistleblower protection. \n\n\n\nThis event will introduce members of the Humanity Hub and other groups and persons concerned with fighting corruption to the resources available from KKC and the NWC to aid in their advocacy. Recent trends in the U.S. impacting global anti-corruption efforts will be discussed\, along with potential solutions to fill the enforcement void caused by changes in U.S. policy. \n\n\n\nPlease register using the form linked below.Participation will be confirmed upon invitation.Refreshments will be served!

SUMMARY:Turning lessons into legacy: Strategies for documenting and sharing programme insights
DESCRIPTION:How can you ensure that valuable insights from your programmes and interventions don’t get lost but instead drive future impact? Join our SP Lab learning session on documenting and sharing lessons learned within your organisation and beyond.   \n\n\n\nWithin the volatile world of development funding\, documenting and using lessons learned is essential. Therefore\, the Partos SP Lab is organising a series of learning sessions on learning in programmes\, organisations and partnerships. During this first session we will focus on learning from programmes such as the Power of Voices Partnerships. \n\n\n\nDrawing on concrete experiences\, we will discuss practical strategies for integrating learning from the start of a programme and identify ways to communicate insights effectively to different audiences. \n\n\n\nIn this interactive session\, we discuss questions such as: \n\n\n\n\nHow do we tailor documentation and learning processes to the needs of internal teams and external stakeholders?\n\n\n\nHow can we move beyond reports and truly embed learning into our organisations?\n\n\n\nHow can we use our insights to show the impact we made and improve future practices?\n\n\n\n\nThis session will provide ample opportunity to learn from each other\, exchange insights and challenges\, and jointly identify best practices. \n\n\n\nThis is the first session of a series of learning sessions on sustained learning. In subsequent sessions we will dive deeper into embedding learning in organisations and decolonising learning in equitable partnerships.
