The Certificate Award Ceremony for the participants of The First Legal Clinic on Administrative Law was held at the Faculty of Law in Kragujevac.
One way of strengthening the capacities of the Administrative Court is to build capacities of law faculties in Serbia to produce legal experts in the field of administrative procedure and administrative dispute, who will be the backbone not only of the Administrative Court, but also be able to better understand the specific of administrative law while working in basic or higher courts or prosecution offices.
It is important to enable the law faculties to offer further training in this specific field of law, reviewing administrative decisions in timely manner and enabling citizens to complain against state administration. This is considered as crucial elements of rule of law and democratization. To achieve this, German Development Cooperation supported three law faculties, Kragujevac Law Faculty being one of them, to introduce legal clinic on administrative law for senior students. This should enable them to acquire practical knowledge and skills in this field and apply the acquired knowledge through different forms of practical work, including solving the given legal problems and hypothetical cases, writing submissions and legal acts, simulating administrative procedure and administrative dispute – gaining in this way the skills necessary for their future independent work.
