CCHR and Program on Constitutional Structure Advise the Constitutional Court of Ecuador
Under the terms of a new agreement between the University of Notre Dame and the Constitutional Court of Ecuador, Professor Paolo Carozza, Director of the Center for Civil and Human Rights (CCHR), and Professor Amy Barrett will conduct an intensive week-long seminar with Ecuadorian justices in Quito later this month.
With the enactment of a new national constitution in 2008, Ecuador’s Constitutional Court has adopted some aspects of a common law model. Professors Carozza and Barrett have been asked to assist the Court by providing a foundation in both the procedural and theoretical aspects of precedent-based law.
