It was a pleasure to speak about the work we do at the International Criminal Court — the legal framework, the Court’s structure and functions, and the challenges it faces — with students at the School of Law, BRAC University, and the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, North South University, on 23 and 24 December 2024 respectively. Special thanks to Professor Md. Rizwanul Islam and Mostafa Hosain for the kind invitations.

It was a pleasure to once again judge the Final of the English edition of the ICC Moot Court Competition. Great performances all around.
