Week of Integrity in UNYT

In the frame of the “Week of Integrity”, the University of New York Tirana organized on the 6th of February the Academic Seminar “Integrity in Academia” and “Moot Court Competition in Human Rights & Integrity with a focus in Refugee Law”.
During this session, the panellists delved into problems of integrity within the education sector as well as what actions have already been taken by academia and other organizations until now. The panellists discussed initiatives of state institutions on this matter, the most important needs of the sector, and the gaps that the regulatory framework has in this aspect. The Experts also explored an important recommendation during this seminar: the need to include a course on ethics within each major to increase professional conduct for students studying that major.
In the second session, UNYT organized the Moot Court that addressed the most pertinent and topical questions relating to integrity and international refugee law, drawing on the current crisis situations.
The event was concluded with the Moot Court Competition on “Human Rights & Integrity with focus on Refugee Law”.
