On 6 October 2014, the Belgrade Centre for Human Rights had the honour of hosting Dame Rosalyn Higgins QC as the inaugural lecturer in the series of memorial lectures in honour of Professor Vojin Dimitrijević, the Centre’s founder and long-time director.

The series will consist of memorial lectures by an eminent scholar or public figure in international law, international relations, and human rights. The lectures will be held annually, in October each year, on the anniversary of Professor Dimitrijević’s passing.

The Centre is most grateful to Dame Rosalyn for starting the series. Her lecture on ‘Rules, Choices, and International Law’, which was also branded as an ESIL Lecture, is now available on the ESIL website and ESIL’s Youtube channel.
