Ono Academic College’s School of Law invites the general public to a series of study sessions on the planned legal reform. The lecture series is entitled: “The End of Democracy or Its Strengthening?”
Are you tired of the partisan slogans and the screeching tones of the political parties? Is it difficult to truly understand what is going on because of the hysterical manner in which political positions are being laid out? are supposed to mean due to the fervor of passions?

If so, join us study the main issues that comprise the proposed judicial reform, together with Ministers of Justice, Judges of the Supreme Court, Senior Officials of the Ministry of Justice and other experts.
