In this episode, Dr Rishi Gulati is in conversation with Professor Gentian Zyberi on his experiences as an international lawyer who has effectively combined academic work and the practice of international law. In the next few episodes of this podcast series, one key theme is to learn from a diversity of lawyers as to the path they took, challenges confronted, and how they were tackled and overcome. The discussion not only touches on substantive legal issues of significance, but also on the personal stories of the lawyers who played a part in tackling them. This episode discusses various aspects of Professor Zyberi’s work who is currently Head of Department and Professor of International Law and Human Rights at the Norwegian Centre for Human Rights. He is a member of the Permanent Court of Arbitration, member of the Scientific Committee of the EU Fundamental Rights Agency, and President of the Albanian branch of the International Law Association. Previously, he has been a member of the UN Human Rights Committee, and has appeared as counsel before international courts and tribunals. Professor Zyberi holds a bachelor’s degree in law (Bcum laude) from Tirana University School of Law in Albania, and a Master’s and PhD degree from Utrecht University School of Law.
