From a Triangle to a Square: who shares the European Identity?

The Hague, 21-28 March 2014

International Moot Court Competition

Foundation Netherlands-Romania has been responsible for organising a group of high-school students who are representing Romania at the International Moot Court 2014, taking place in The Hague between 21and 24 January 2014. The students are coming from Campulung Muscel and are participating to the contest on behalf of our local partner there, the Pedagogical College Carol I.

The competition affords high school students from all over the world an exceptional opportunity to argue at The Hague, to develop in-depth knowledge of the International Criminal Court, to gain a heightened respect for international criminal law and to enjoy the opportunity to exchange ideas with students from other countries.

The International Moot Court was developed by the Justice Resource Center (JRC) Inc., in New York, in partnership with the Department of Education of the Municipality of The Hague, and in conjunction with the International Bar Association (IBA-England).

The Romanian group has been enjoying the support of the TAROM Romanian Airlines.

Opening of the information centre for Romanians in The Hague

Foundation Netherlands-Romania is one of the three partners directing the Information Centre for Romanians and Bulgarians in The Hague (IBR). The Centre was set up on request of the Municipality of The Hague. Our goal is to inform Romanians living/working in The Hague about their rights and duties concerning local and national governance (such as registration at the Municipality, medical insurance, knowledge of the minimum wages and other useful information regarding the integration into the Dutch society). The services of the Centre are rendered by our trained consultants at a desk located within the Municipality of The Hague, as well as at the Bulgarian Church in The Hague.

The IBR project was launched in December 2013 by Deputy Mayor for Urban Development, Public Housing and Integration, Mr Marnix Norder, together with the Romanian and Bulgarian Ambassadors to The Netherlands.
