(9 September, 2016) The Ecuadorian Constitutional Court counts on Italy, and in particular the University of Pisa to develop research in the field of law. The director of the Law School at the University of Pisa, Roberto Romboli and the President of the Ecuadorian Constitutional Court, Alfredo Guzman Ruiz, have both signed a collaboration agreement on constitutional matters and the protection of human rights. The ceremony took place in Quito at the seat of the Constitutional Court. This agreement will last for three years after which time it can be renewed according to the interest of the two parties. The Centre for Studies and the Diffusion of Constitutional Rights of the Constitutional Court (CEDEC) and the University of Pisa aim to promote law research in the sectors of theory of law, constitutional law and human rights. This collaboration also enables the two institutions to develop training programmes. (Red)
