Conditions of Participation

This year the World Human Rights Moot Court Competition will take place in Switzerland Geneva at the Palais des Nations, from 12 to 16 July 2021.

Universities must register two students. It is the responsibility of the universities to ensure the smooth preparation of all travel arrangements. Faculties assume full responsibility for the arrangement and cost of accommodation during the Competition.

The normal precautions applicable to international traveling should be taken. Valuables, especially memorials, should not be put in check-in luggage as this is sometimes lost by the airlines. Instead, they should be kept in hand luggage. It is strongly advised to leave a copy of the important pages of your passports both in your home country and in your room at the Moot in case you lose the originals.

The organisers will help to facilitate access to medical care where needed, but cannot assume responsibility for such costs. It is the responsibility of participants and participating institutions to make sure they take out medical insurance in advance, or have other plans in place to cover such costs.

Participants are required to keep themselves informed about the Moot by regularly visiting the website: www.chr.up.ac.za

About the Competition

The Nelson Mandela World Moot Court Competition will take place in Switzerland Geneva at the Palais des Nations, from 12 to 16 July 2021.

The Nelson Mandela World Moot Court Competition is of students, academics and judges around the theme of International human rights. This annual event brings together faculties from around the world, whose top students argue a hypothetical human rights case as if they were before the appearing in front of a regional human rights Court, and to do so on the basis of the International Bill of Human Rights and other applicable international (including regional) human rights instruments. The Competition continuously prepares new generations of lawyers to argue cases of alleged human rights violations.

Every University in the world is invited to enter one team, consisting of 2 students, on the undergraduate or Master’s level, who have not received their graduation certificates on the final day of the Competition.

Good luck with the preparations for the 12th World Human Rights Moot Court Competition!
