Judicial Training

Honduras's Judicial School is conducting a training module on indigenous peoples' rights within the criminal justice system in La Ceiba, October 19–20, in partnership with the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.

Honduras's Judicial School is holding a national training for court inspectors, led by UN human rights experts and the European Union, focusing on judicial independence, workplace discipline, and gender-inclusive investigation practices.

The Judicial School, with support from the International Committee of the Red Cross, held a regional workshop in Danlí for judges, prosecutors, and public defenders on international standards for pretrial detention and alternatives to incarceration.

Honduras's judiciary is organizing a nationwide training program for judges on domestic-violence law and an information fair on November 27 to help women report abuse, part of a coordinated effort to strengthen enforcement and reduce domestic violence.

The Judicial School held a national gathering of specialized judges on organized crime, environmental, and corruption cases, aimed at strengthening judicial capacity and rule-of-law enforcement with support from the U.S. Embassy's International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Bureau.

Twenty judges, magistrates, and court staff from eight Honduran cities completed a UN-backed trainer program on gender and intersectionality, now mandatory in the Judicial School curriculum, aimed at aligning the justice system with international human-rights standards.
