Trier, 28 October 2013 – 29 October 2013 Language: English Event number: 413R19 Areas of law: Asylum & Immigration Law, Human Rights Law, Judicial Remedies Contents The Stockholm Programme and the “EU agenda for better responsibility-sharing and more mutual trust” both aim to create common rules in the area of asylum law so as to increase mutual trust between Member States.

This conference will focus on the new legislative rules and will assess whether the second phase CEAS can achieve the objective of ensuring common standards in all Member States, based on a high level of protection. Key topics The legi...
