We are a team of lawyers and researchers specialized in the disciplines of public international law and international relations (including European law and international human rights law), private international law and constitutional law.<\/p>

This Website is one of the results of transfer to society for the project \u2018Secesi\u00f3n, democracia y derechos humanos: la funci\u00f3n del Derecho internacional y europeo ante el proceso catal\u00e1n – SEDEDH\u2019 (Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation; reference: PID2019-106956RB-I00, 2019\u20132024; PI: Helena Torroja Mateu). The SEDEDH project falls within the \u2018Research Challenges\u2019 category. It thus aims to create scientific and technical knowledge oriented towards \u2018solving social problems arising from social changes\u2019, such as the Catalan secession process (2012\u20132017) and their current consequences remain.<\/p>
