The human rights moot court was organised in collaboration with Law Society of Ireland and was presided over by the current Maltese Judge on the European Court of Human Rights and two former Maltese Judges sitting on the same Court. She currently occupies the role of Vice-President of the Society, where she is heavily involved in all activities of the Society and in discussions with other stakeholders within the justice system.
