“Justice Week 2022 Live Virtual Intervarsity Debate “This house believes that international human rights law and international humanitarian law provide adequate protections in respect of the use of autonomous weapons and systems in warfare.”

The Bar of Ireland is delighted to be hosting the third annual Justice Week Intervarsity Debate.

This year’s student participants will be representing the Law Schools of UCD, UCC, UL, MU, NUIG, DCU, TCD and TU Dublin.

Each Law School has nominated one student each, and the nominees have been organised into two teams of four where the students must join forces to prepare their arguments.

They will appear before a prestigious panel of judges, who will be announced shortly.


About Justice Week

‘Justice Week’ is an annual campaign of the legal professions across the four jurisdictions (Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales) and its purpose is to increase support, understanding and awareness of the rule of law and justice among young people. The annual intervarsity debate is a wonderful opportunity for law students, particularly those who may be considering a career as a barrister, to hone their advocacy skills before a prestigious panel of judges; and to meet and collaborate with students of other Law Schools.
