The Marangopoulos Foundation for Human Rights (MFHR) and the University of Strasbourg, are co-organising an international scientific conference on: “The European constitutional heritage between progress and regression/Le patrimoine constitutionnel européen entre progression et régression” -held both in-person and virtually. The event will take place on 4-5 May 2023, in Strasbourg.
