Furthering Victims’ Rights
On 22 September 2020, on the occasion of the High-Level Conference on the EU Strategy on Victims’ Rights, Eurojust announced that it would join the newly created Victims’ Rights Platform. The platform is the first measure created under the first EU Strategy on Victims’ Rights (see eucrim 2/2020, p. 104), which was adopted at the beginning of the year to provide a forum for discussion. Other partners of the platform include the European Network on Victims’ Rights, the EU Network of National Contact Points for Compensation, the EU Counter-Terrorism Coordinator, the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights, and civil society organisations.
