MEDEL was present last weekend at the XII Congress of Portuguese Prosecutors, of our Portuguese member association Sindicato dos Magistrados do Ministério Público, that took place in Vilamoura, Portugal.
An important event where relevant topics were discussed, such as the independence of the Prosecution service, the role of Public Prosecution in the protection of consumers or the environment or how to better communicate justice.
During the event, a new “Union of Prosecutors of Portuguese Speaking Countries” was formally created, bringing together SMMP and associations of prosecutors from Angola, Brasil, Cabo Verde, Guiné-Bissau, Moçambique and São Tomé e Princípe.
