International Criminal Court

Overview

Could one individual’s actions during a tumultuous conflict shape the course of justice for an entire nation?

“Ratko Mladić v. The Prosecutor” revolves around the prosecution of Ratko Mladić, a former Bosnian Serb military leader, for his alleged involvement in war crimes, genocide, and crimes against humanity during the Bosnian War (1992-1995), including the notorious Srebrenica massacre, where more than 7000 Bosniak men and boys were brutally murdered.

The trial of Ratko Mladić is not only about holding an individual accountable, but also about seeking justice for the victims and survivors of the Bosnian War.

David Gheorghiu

Hello! My name is David and I’m currently a first year at SciencesPo studying Politics and Government, though originally I come from Piatra Neamt. My passions include history, international relations and law, which is why I am very excited to chair the International Criminal Court!

Ioana Ștefănescu

Hi! I’m Ioana, a junior at “Vasile Alecsandri” National College Galati and I’m beyond excited to chair the ICC committee as I love everything that has to do with law and international relations. I started attending MUNs 2 years ago and all I can say is that they are worth attending. Although I found it difficult to speak up at first, MUNs helped me overcome my fear of public speaking. Therefore, I hope you will take the plunge and will try something new that will definitely change you for the better.
