80 years after Nuremberg, International Criminal Law faces unprecedented challenges. At the prestigious Nuremberg Forum 2025, practitioners and scholars charted a way forward in historical Courtroom 600. This is the moment to protect the international legal order and the ICC.

The majority of all law of the sea cases today are decided by the Int‘l Tribunal for the Law of the Sea - even when they initially began as arbitration cases. There could be no greater sign of trust States have in the jurisprudence, but also the efficiency of ITLOS.
Honored to host Judge Tomas Heidar, President of the Int'l Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) for an overview over the Tribunal's advisory opinions and a reflection on their impact of the int'l law of the sea.

As host country, Germany remains a committed supporter of ITLOS.

Wunderbare Erinnerungen an eine unglaublich lebendige, den Menschen zugewandte Frau. Wir werden sie sehr vermissen.
„Wir sind alle gleich. Seid Menschen!“ – Margot #Friedländer wird sehr fehlen. Sie vermittelte bis zuletzt den Eindruck, sie sei unsterblich. Ihr Vermächtnis ist es. Denn es ist aktueller als je zuvor.
