Professor Karolina Kremens (head at the Digital Justice Center) has received a PRELUDIUM BIS 4 grant sponsored by the National Science Centre! As a result, Professor Kremens will form a research team, in which she will be the project leader and supervisor of a PhD student. The purpose of the program is to support the education of doctoral students by providing a PhD scholarship allowing to carry out a research project, and promoting international mobility.

The topic of the project is “Virtual Justice. Remote proceedings before the International Criminal Court – threat or opportunity?”. As part of it, the research team will analyze the clashing interests of defendants, victims, witnesses and the public when proceedings are conducted remotely, i.e. with the use of technology that allows all parties to the proceedings and the public to connect remotely.
