This year's THEMIS Competition
All the details of the current year's THEMIS Competition may be found from the THEMIS project page.
THEMIS' roots
THEMIS was created, financed and run from 2006 to 2009 by the Portuguese Centre from the Judiciary Studies (CEJ) and the National Institute of Magistracy of Romania (NIM).
In 2010, the Competition became an EJTN activity and steps were then taken to adapt and enlarge its format in order to recognize its importance in cross-border training in European Law.

- promote a forum of discussion on European and International Law topics,
