Concluding Workshop of the 4th EAPIL Young Research Network Project – Report

On 21 November 2024, the concluding workshop of the fourth project of the EAPIL Young Research Network on Recognition of Non-EU Judgments in the EU Member States took place. The workshop was hosted by the Permanent Bureau of the Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH) in collaboration with the Center for International Legal Cooperation (CILC) Project Balkan Enforcement Strengthening Project (BESp), funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands and implemented by the CILC. The event was also supported by the European Association of Private International Law (EAPIL). The fourth project of the EAPIL Young Research Network, coordinated by Tobias Lutzi (University of Augsburg), Ennio Piovesani (Ferretti Firm) and Dora Zgrabljić Rotar (University of Zagreb), focuses on the domestic rules of the EU Member States governing the recognition and enforcement of non-EU judgments in civil and commercial matters. The concluding workshop marked a significant moment of discussion and exchange on this critical topic in private international law, fostering collaboration among young researchers, practitioners and senior legal experts.
