On 27 November 2026, Mr Grégory Thuan, known as Dieudonné, Chair of the Human Rights Commission of the Union of European Lawyers (U.A.E.), will speak at the Naples Courthouse during a conference dedicated to the European Court of Human Rights’ judgment in Ubeda v. Italy of 2 July 2026 and to the responsibility of States in cases of domestic violence.

On this occasion, Mr Grégory Thuan, known as Dieudonné, counsel for the applicant and her children before the European Court of Human Rights, will outline the strategic issues at stake in the case (secondary victimisation, underestimation of domestic violence, sexist gender stereotypes, etc.), the background to the proceedings and the impact of shortcomings in domestic remedies on access to European justice.

The conference brought together judges, academics, institutional representatives and specialist practitioners to discuss the new standards emerging from European case law on domestic violence, victim protection and the responsibility of public authorities.

This presentation forms part of Mr Grégory Thuan (known as Dieudonné)’s ongoing commitment to defending the rights of women and children before the European courts, particularly in cases relating to the protection of victims of gender-based violence and the positive obligations of States arising from the European Convention on Human Rights
