The journal La Revue des Droits de l’Homme published in its 14th edition “The protection of prisoners’ rights in Europe”, proceedings of two conferences of the constitutive project of the European Prison Litigation Network
In 2016 EPLN co-organised two conferences : on 21 April 2016 at the University Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne under the direction of Nicolas Ferran (OIP-SF), Isabelle Fouchard (ISJPS, University Paris I), Anne Simon (ISJPS, University Paris I) and Hugues de Suremain (EPLN) and on 14-15 June 2016 at the European Court of Human Rights under the direction of Emilio Santoro (University of Florence /Altro Diritto), Gaëtan Cliquennois (SAGE, University of Strasbourg) and Hugues de Suremain (EPLN).
