The course
Throughout 2025, Naples hosted the Technical and practical course in Immigration Law (with comparative perspectives): an annual programme of 11 lessons, each with a theoretical focus and a practical module, devoted to the institutions of immigration law and their judicial protection.
The lessons featured lawyers from Italy and other European Union and Mediterranean countries, university lecturers and UNHCR representatives, with technical and practical contributions and discussions with participants.
The lessons were held at the Naples Courthouse (Aula Metafora) and streamed live online on the Naples Bar Council’s Cisco Webex platform. The course, supported by Fondazione Scopelliti, was accredited for 20 professional training credits, plus 3 credits in compulsory subjects (professional ethics).
Avv. Luigi Migliaccio, Coordinator of the Immigration Law Committee of the Naples Bar Council, introduced the lessons and led the practical modules together with the Committee’s lawyers, including Avv. Ida Laudisa.
