Acting Dean of the Faculty of Law Yaroslav Lazur was the organizer of the conference from scholars side and Daniela Holod - from students side.
Volodymyr Smolanka made a special mention of foreign colleagues’ participation in "Transcarpathian legal readings." During the conference Rector thanked the participants for coming and wished to gain new knowledge, exchange experience and establish scientific contacts at the forum.
"Unlike previous conferences, we tried to make the seventh readings more innovative and modern; attract a wider range of young scholars. Therefore, preference was given to the newest branches of law," said the conference organizer from students side Daniela Holod.
