The Open Court Project

Courtroom photographing and videotaping is restricted around the world[1], except Ukraine

Ukraine is the world`s only country which just after the Revolution of 2014 [also known as the Euromaidan Revolution or Revolution of Dignity] adopted a unique legislation allowing videotaping of court sessions without obtaining the specific permission/order of the judge. Starting from 2015 on the Open Court Project has been launched within NGO Open Ukraine, whose hallmark is videotaping of court proceedings in civil, commercial, administrative cases, court proceedings in criminal and administrative offences. By now, we have routinely videotaped over 7000 of cases in hundreds of courts at different levels, located in all regions of Ukraine. All videos of court proceedings are properly stored, arranged by the type of proceeding, case and the subject matter, published for public and can be found in the public domain on the Internet for free. The OCP has been consistently recognised by the society and top - officials as effective and innovative, as one of most important projects aimed at reforming the judiciary and establishment of the rule of law in Ukraine [please find more detailed information on the Open Court Project on the official Web Site and Facebook Page].

The long - term goal of the OCP is the establishment of a credible judiciary, strengthening the rule of law in Ukraine.

In achieving this ultimate goal, the OCP focuses on the following objectives:
