On 27 February 2025, a public conference will be organized on the Court's Knowledge Sharing Platform (ECHR-KS). This conference will be part of an event to launch the new language versions of the platform (Romanian, Turkish and Ukrainian). During the conference speakers will explain how users (legal professionals, academics and journalists) can best navigate through the platform.
The ECHR-KS platform was developed by the Registry. On the platform, up-to-date data and analyses of developments in the Court's case-law through specific Convention Articles/Transversal Themes are shared. The platform thereby complements other sources for the Court's case-law such as HUDOC.
This is a description of the event:
'To mark the occasion of the launch of the new language versions of the European Court’s Knowledge
Sharing platform, the Directorate General Human Rights and Rule of Law of the Council of Europe
and the Court will hold a high-level conference. The morning session will include contributions from,
among others, Elisabeth Margue, Minister of Justice of Luxembourg; Alain Berset, Secretary General
of the Council of Europe; Marko Bošnjak, President of the European Court of Human Rights;

General of Human Rights and Rule of Law of the Council of Europe; Stanislav Kravchenko, President
of the Supreme Court of Ukraine; Radu Marinescu, Minister of Justice of Romania; and Niyazi Acar,
Deputy Minister of Justice of Türkiye.
The afternoon session, which begins at 2 p.m. until 4.20 p.m. CET on 27 February 2025, will be open
to the public to access online. Speakers will focus on the Knowledge Sharing platform – the Court’s
tool for disseminating case-law knowledge and widening understanding of the Court’s jurisprudence
among the public, which complements the Court’s HUDOC database. In particular, speakers will
explain how to use the Knowledge Sharing platform effectively to understand better the case-law of
the Court, and how the new language versions were developed.'
