Discussion with Slovenian Judge at the International Criminal Court, Beti Hohler, LL.M.

November 21, 2025, Institute of Criminology at the Faculty of Law in Ljubljana,

Poljanski nasip 2, 1000 Ljubljana

You are cordially invited to a talk with Judge Beti Hohler, LL.M., a Slovenian judge at the International Criminal Court (ICC), who will deliver a lecture entitled “The International Criminal Court: Reflections on Promise, Progress and Peril” on Friday, 21 November 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at the Library of the Institute of Criminology at the Faculty of Law, University of Ljubljana.

Over the past two decades, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has established itself as a central institution within the framework of international criminal justice. During this period, the Court has developed an extensive body of jurisprudence that has advanced the interpretation and application of international criminal law, both at the international and domestic levels. At the same time, the ICC is facing a range of complex challenges, which include sanctions and arrest warrants targeting its elected officials.

In her talk, Judge Hohler will address the development, achievements, and challenges of the International Criminal Court, including some of the most topical issues such as U.S. sanctions against certain ICC judges and prosecutors, and the non-compliance with arrest warrants issued by the Court against specific elected state officials.

A brief introductory lecture will be followed by an open discussion, offering an opportunity for an in-depth examination of the issues raised and for an exchange of views among participants.

Attendees are warmly encouraged to reflect in advance on questions they may wish to put to the Judge.

The event will be held in English as part of a broader series of events featuring several international guests.

No audio or video recording is allowed at the event, except with the express permission of the organizer.
