Established by a group of lawyers and lawyers\u2019 organisations, the initiative is supported by over 100 legal associations across the world, who are committed to the vital importance of the right to a fair trial and addressing the serious challenges to due process rights worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>The IFTD is coordinated by a Steering Group* which, each year, selects a focus country &#8211; where fair trial rights are being systemically violated \u2013 following a nomination process, and organises an event to mark the IFTD, as well as a series of activities around the event to draw attention to the situation in that country. The conference brings together national and international stakeholders to examine systemic fair trial issues and develop concrete recommendations to address them, which are shared in a public statement and report on the event.<\/p>\n<p>The Ebru Timtik Award was established alongside the IFTD. Ebru Timtik is a lawyer from Turkey who lost her life on 27 August 2020 as a result of a 238-day hunger strike she undertook to protest against the systemic violations of fair trial rights which people in Turkey are facing. Every year, on the occasion of the IFTD, the Ebru Timtik Award is granted by an independent jury to an individual, individuals and\/or an organisation that has\/have made a significant contribution to the defence and promotion of the right to a fair trial in the focus country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Steering Groupe of the International Fair Trial Day (IFTD), in which OIAD participates,\u00a0invites you to the\u00a0International Fair Trial Day (IFTD) Conference and the Ebru Timtik Award Ceremony[1]\u00a0which will take place in\u00a0Brussels (Universit\u00e9 libre de Bruxelles, Solbosch campus)\u00a0and\u00a0online via Zoom on\u00a0Thursday, 12 June 2025.
