We are delighted to invite you to the very first edition of EYBA Webinars, which will take place on Thursday, 22 January 2026, from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. (Central European Time).
For this inaugural session, we are proud to collaborate with Lawyers 4 Lawyers on the theme: “From the United States to Europe: Defending the Right to Defense.”
During this webinar we will welcome the following speakers that will share their thoughts on the recent developments in the international legal landscape and the rule of law for lawyers:
- Scott Carlson, member of the American Bar Association;
- Sophie de Graaf, executive director of Lawyers 4 Lawyers; and
- Merel Pontier, human rights lawyer in Texas.
This webinar will explore pressing challenges and shared experiences in safeguarding the fundamental right to defense across jurisdictions. It promises to be an insightful discussion, bridging perspectives from both sides of the Atlantic.
We look forward to welcoming you to this important conversation and to launching EYBA Webinars as a space for learning, exchange, and community.
The registration for this webinar is free of charge. Please find the registration form for the webinar here.
