A network designed to facilitate dialogue between the European Court of Human Rights and the national superior courts
Launched by the European Court of Human Rights in 2015, the Superior Courts Network (SCN) has matured into a vibrant, operational-level community in the service of human rights, the rule of law and justice. Ten years on and spanning 111 member courts in all 46 Council of Europe member States, the SCN remains dedicated to sharing knowledge and know-how for the mutual benefit of judiciaries across Europe and beyond.
This anniversary compilation offers unique perspectives on the Network’s genesis and evolution, as well as on its influence on domestic jurisprudence. These insights make a strong case for the added value of judicial dialogue and collaboration in the shared implementation of the European Convention on Human Rights.
