Indeed, for the first time this year, the Institute organised a high level International Conference, that gathered highly renowned specialists to debate on « the Universal Abolition of the Death Penalty» in order to contribute to political change and progressively putting an end to this barbarous practice that violates human rights. Organised in October at the headquarter of the Interamerican Court of human rights in Costa Rica, to which I would like to personally give thanks for their precious support, this event aimed at putting in perspective different reductionists and abolitionists strategies, in particular moratoriums in law or in practice. This Conference also reflects the will of our Institute to develop more activities in Latin America. In addition, the Court of San José came to visit the Institute on 22 October, a first. We developed new sessions in Africa and wider the scope of our action to the Maghreb by organising a session in Rabat designed and dedicated to the executives of the Council of Human Rights of Morocco. We also strengthened our action in Central Africa with the setting up of a session in Mali, as well as a session in Republic of Congo in partnership with the French Embassy and the European Union, that was a success and will be renewed in 2016. These three sessions were devoted to improve the protection of the most vulnerables such as children, women, victims of conflict and minorities. Last year we put in place a Human Rights Clinic in Strasbourg in partnership with the Strasbourg Law Faculty. The Clinic is a legal training which aims at allowing students to learn law while practicing. In December 2014, the students of the promotion 2013-2015 have for example submitted a third-party- Intervention to the ECHR in the Lambert case related to the end of life, thus putting in practice before one of the most prestigious Judicial Institutions the knowledge gained during their university programme. The Clinic welcomed a second promotion in Octobre 2014. The students of the two promotions also had the opportunity to follow seminars given by renowned experts. At the end of the Clinic programme, a university diploma will be delivered to the students. We supported the organisation of the René Cassin Moot Court Competition 2014. Created in 1984, the ‘Cassin’ is an international French-speaking moot court competition based on the case law of the European Court of Human Rights. Over the years it became the most distinguished French-speaking moot court competition in this field. Each year, it offers the opportunity to students coming from all over the world to face each other at the occasion of a fake trial before the Court. Finally, we have started to change the legal status of the Institute (currently association) into a Foundation, which should lead to a better management and development of our activities. This major turning point, unanimously approved in its principle by the IIHR General Assembly in September 2014, should be endorsed by a decree of the Conseil d’Etat (Council of State) in 2015. Local authorities and ministries will be stakeholders of the Foundation, which thanks to tax incentives due to this status, will be able to receive donations from private partners. The year 2015 should open the doors to new perspectives. But none of this could be possible without the work and the talent of all the people, of all countries, the Institute relies on: members of the staff, professors, sessions’ participants, members of the association… To all, I wish a happy new year, and I thank them warmly.

Every year the General Assembly and the Executive Board meet in order to put in place the overall policy strategy of the organisation. The Executive Board gathered on 14 June 2014 in Aix-en-Provence, at the end of the IIHR Annual symposium, in order to discuss current issues including the project of IIHR legal transformation (currently association) into a foundation. On 13 September 2014, the Institute held an ordinary General Assembly and extraordinary General Assembly in Paris. The change of legal status into a foundation recognised as being one for public purposes was officially endorsed and should happen in the course of 2015. Reelection of the President and the Secretary General On 1st December 2014, the Executive Board of the International Instititute of Human Rights has reelected Mr. Jean-Paul Costa as President and Mr. Sébastien Touzé as Secretary General for a three-year term from 1st january 2015.

    “GRAND EUROPEAN SYMPOSIUM: TRAINING, RESEARCH AND INNOVATION IN THE EUROPE OF HEALTH” September 30th, 2021 Live from the Sorbonne’s Grand Amphitheater, Paris, France, and in multiplex with partner European universities and research centers Health is involved in many global and strategic challenges. These challenges are increased by the Covid-19 pandemic and by all pandemics in general, but they are also tied to ageing populations, climate change and economic, societal and social crises. Everywhere in the world health is found at the heart of citizens and government leaders’ preoccupations. Also, and perhaps more than any other sector, Health must face the information crisis, the relativism of values and the questioning of knowledge and science. The fears and concerns tied to the health crisis and to the economic difficulties associated with it have a sometimes negative influence on the population’s perception of health, medical and scientific questions. 1 Lastly, health news and the handling of the Covid-19 pandemic may have dramatic effects on the lives and health of young people, especially on students, that are confronted with a crisis which prevents them from having social interactions, immerges them sometimes in economic precarity and keeps them from peacefully building their future. In this context Europe is affirming itself as a solution to face current and future health issues. Having health education and research as its base, the “Europe of Health” will certainly be able to better respond to future sanitary crises but also to offer new perspectives to caregivers and young Europeans worried about the future. Building an efficient, attractive and ambitious European health model that is capable of collaborating with other world powers would bring Europeans together around a common project and a European identity based on Health, Research and Education.
