On June 6, Kyiv hosted the 2nd Annual Conference “Judicial Oversight: Procedural Interaction Between Judges and Enforcement Officers in the Execution of Court Decisions”, bringing together over a hundred participants — judges, enforcement officers, advocates, scholars, and representatives of international organizations.

Judge Olena Fonova, co-founder of the NGO “Pro Justice”, took the floor as a speaker, presenting fresh analytics on how the compliance report mechanism is being applied in commercial proceedings. Her data showed that the practice is still taking shape — and that the full potential of judicial oversight remains largely untapped.

The event, organized by the Kyiv Private Enforcement Officers Council with support from the National School of Judges of Ukraine, the Association of Private Enforcement Officers of Ukraine, and the EU Project “Pravo-Justice”, aimed to take a 360° look at the chronic pain points of judgment enforcement — and to brainstorm workable fixes.

On June 26, the Aspen Institute Kyiv hosted a dialogue titled “Constitutional Justice: A View from the Bench” featuring Stanislav Kravchenko, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Ukraine. The discussion touched on public trust in the judiciary, the future of remote hearings, the feasibility of establishing a system of military justice, and the interface between the Supreme Court and the Constitutional Court.

Among the participants — graduates of the Justice, Law and Society seminar series — was Olena Fonova, Judge of the Luhansk Commercial Court, co-founder of “Pro Justice”.

The event was held under the OSCE Support Programme for Ukraine, within the Justice, Law and Society thematic stream.

Both events reaffirmed a simple truth familiar to every legal professional: open dialogue, solid analytics, and a strong expert community are the real drivers of justice and systemic reform.
