Volunteer (m/w/d)

About the job Position: The Court Volunteer Volunteer, full-time International criminal justice, spearheaded by international courts and law, is hindered in crucial cases by political influence or lack of jurisdiction, such as vetoes, allowing regimes and leaders to act with impunity and endanger people. Notably, Ferencz played a pivotal role in ensuring accountability for the SS Nazi-Einsatzgruppen during the Nuremberg trials and made invaluable contributions to the establishment of the International Criminal Court. The Court's dedication to investigating severe violations, including Crimes of Aggression, War Crimes, and Crimes against Humanity, reflects a commitment to addressing complex challenges in international law. The 2023 Ukraine Tribunal serves as a precedent, showcasing the Court's capacity to contribute to the discourse on international justice. Significantly, the Court's approach centers around making state heads accountable, ensuring that victims have a platform to be heard—a distinctive feature compared to current international courts.
