23 April marks the fifth anniversary of the death of Andrii Meleshovych — President of NaUKMA, Dean of the Faculty of Law, and a distinguished lawyer and mentor.
Issues of democracy, the rule of law and political culture were always at the forefront of Mr Meleshovych’s mind. Therefore, the best way to honour his memory is to gather together within the walls of the Academy for a joint prayer and a professional discussion about the future he lived for.
