On March 14 of this year, the initiative commenced at Caucasus International University, with the inaugural public lecture held today at the Justice Auditorium, featuring a joint presentation by the First Deputy Minister of Justice and Dean of the Faculty of Law, Giorgi Khatidze.

Designed to provide comprehensive insights into the ministry's missions, objectives, and milestones, the auditorium serves as a hub for enlightenment and engagement. This initiative aims to heighten students' awareness of legal issues, foster student-led initiatives, promote public service, and facilitate recruitment to the Ministry of Justice.

Fostering collaboration with civil society, academia, and the next generation of legal professionals stands as a cornerstone of the Ministry's strategic vision.

In the near future, the expansion of the Justice Auditorium project will unfold in partnership with other universities.
