On 1 November, 2021, the CSO Anti-Corruption Coalition of Armenia, and Armenian Lawyers’ Association published the joint expert study on the topic “Guarantees of Judicial Independence and Effective Functioning of the Court: International Experience and Mechanisms for Implementation in Armenia.”
The study focuses on international experience of the legal status of judges, the role of the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) in guaranteeing the independence of courts and judges. The experience of more than 15 countries was studied in its framework. Further, a roadmap on the basis of international and national experience was developed to increase the role of the SJC and implement priority reforms in the context of guaranteeing the independence of Armenian courts and judges.
The study can be used by RA state bodies and civil society organizations to implement reforms in this area.
The study in Armenian language is available here.
