Justice Programme (JUST) has just launched new call for proposals for 2021. The aim of those calls is to fund projects that will improve the European justice systems and respect of all fundamental rights that revolve around it.
The effects of COVID-19 have even impacted the judicial systems that many trials now follow electronic means (e-justice). EU funding’s role is to transform EU policies into tangible results and in that case, it can help to reduce discrimination and ensure fair and efficient trial procedures.
