The School of International Governance and Law of Danubius International University proudly announces the outstanding success of the international webinar “How to Start and Develop a Law Moot Society: First Steps, Good Practices, and International Perspectives”, held on Wednesday, 26 November 2025, in the Senate Hall and online.
Organised under the guidance of the Dean, Assoc. Prof. Cristina Elena Popa Tache, the event enjoyed an impressive turnout, bringing together students, academic staff, legal practitioners, and international guests, confirming the growing interest in advanced training in argumentation techniques and moot court competitions.
The University’s Rector & CEO, dr. Steve O. Michael, and the President of the Board, dr. Andy Pușcă, delivered key interventions.

The webinar brought together distinguished experts from King’s College London:

alongside a special contribution from three renowned participants in prestigious international competitions:

Through their dynamic presentations and direct competition experience, the speakers offered participants practical recommendations on organising, developing, and internationalising a Law Moot Society — from the initial institutional stages to good practices and exemplary European models of excellence.

The event marks the official launch of the Moot Society of the School of International Governance and Law, a strategic project of Danubius International University aimed at strengthening legal education through:

• moot court simulations and competitions,
• international participation,
• advanced academic collaborations,
• the development of advocacy, legal drafting, and critical analysis skills.

The Faculty of Law and International Governance is pleased to announce that its participating team – the Azure Team – in the recently held international competition (BAHRIA MOOT COURT COMPETITION 2025) has received the official certificates issued by the organisers.

We welcome the fact that the debut of the new team took place in collaboration with a university ranked among the top 1000 worldwide in the most demanding international rankings.

Congratulations to our three ambitious students, to whom we extend our gratitude for creating this remarkable chapter: Mădălina Virgolici, Daniela Cireașă, and Raluca Bigu!

In a competition comprising 50 international teams, and after more than half of them were eliminated, our team advanced all the way to the end of this journey. The organisers expressed their appreciation for the team’s outstanding level of commitment and the quality of the performance demonstrated by the representatives of our faculty. Consequently, in addition to the Certificates of Participation, our students were also awarded Certificates of Appreciation, which have already been transmitted electronically.

The granting of these certificates represents an important recognition of the effort, dedication, and professionalism displayed by our students, while also providing significant momentum for strengthening and further developing the faculty’s future academic and extracurricular activities.

Why Participate?

To see your ideas come to life in an international moot court setting, where every argument matters.
Because you will have the chance to test your legal intuition in real time, think quickly, and find solutions where none seem to exist at first glance.
Because you will discover what it means to write and speak in precise, bold, and sophisticated legal English, alongside students from leading law schools around the world.
Because you will represent the faculty before top professors, judges, and practitioners — people who can become intellectual role models or even future mentors.
Because this competition will remain on your CV as an experience that transforms you both professionally and personally.
And, perhaps most beautifully, because in a moot court team, you are not just colleagues — you become part of an intense intellectual journey, where lasting friendships are formed and unforgettable memories are made.
