Afortunadamente, cada vez hay más personas sensibles a las especiales privaciones y sufrimientos que afectan a los menores de edad. La explotación sexual de las niñas, la utilización de los niños como soldados, el trabajo infantil, el tráfico internacional de menores… y todo esto sin contar con el hambre, la guerra y las epidemias. Tras dos tímidos precedentes, la comunidad internacional se hizo eco de estas exigencias en la Convención Internacional de Derechos del Niño de 1989 y en la Convención de las Naciones Unidas con mayor número de ratificaciones, aunque con muy limitada eficacia en la realidad. Nuestro propósito es acercar a todos los profesionales que tratan con la infancia, a los familiares, o a cualquiera que tenga interés y sensibilidad a la respuesta que el Ordenamiento Jurídico puede prestar a esas exigencias específicas. Tomaremos como eje común, sobre el que se articulan los distintos temas, la Convención Internacional de los Derechos del Niño de 1989. Los cuatro ámbitos sobre los que trabajaremos serán: La sustracción internacional de menores. Menores en desamparo y tutela administrativa. La protección sociolaboral. Situaciones de separación de los progenitores. ¿Cómo abordar los diferentes problemas específicos de la infancia? ¿Qué respuestas puede ofrecer el sistema jurídico? En este curso nos proponemos una aproximación crítica a la realidad y a la regulación jurídica española, europea e internacional de la protección del menor.

About the course: This is a course for Indian Corporates. Yes! Almost every company borrows from Bank for meeting their project and operating requirements. When they borrow from Bank or Financial Institution, they provide securities which may be assets or properties of the company. When they provide the assets as security to the lender, they are creating right over the assets in favour of the lender and this right is called as Charge and it should be registered with regulatory authority called Registrar of Companies in India. There are certain legal aspects related to registration of charge with Registrar of Companies. Those legal aspects have to be complied in a given time frame. In case, time frame could not be adhered, the delay should be condoned by appropriate authorities in compliance with Indian Companies Act, 2013. Apart from that, when ever charges are modified it should be registered with Registrar of Companies. Similarly when the loans are closed and charges are satisfied, it should also be communicated and registered with Registrar of Companies and again they have to be done or completed in a given time frame. The companies which borrow from Bank have to maintain Register of Charges for inspection by the share holders and creditors. Similarly, the Registrar of Companies will maintain a register of charges of all the companies in the country for inspection by any one upon payment of prescribed fees. Hence, registration of charges is very important for every corporate who have taken secured loans from Banks. In case, the charge is not registered, it will go against the lender in the event of liquidation of the company because at that point, liquidator will consider or rank only those creditors whose charge were registered with Registrar of Companies. Hence, Registration of Charge is highly important from the Lender / Bankers point of view. Terminology: This course uses less legal terminologies. Efforts were taken to explain in simple English without legal jargons. Material used in this course: This course is presented through Video Lectures. Course Structure: This course is structured in self paced learning style. Why take this course? Registration of Charge is mandatory for every company taking secured loan from Banks / Financial Institutions. Hence, absolute knowledge on Charges and its related provisions, sections, rules in Companies Act, 2013 is must for every one who is dealing or will be dealing in charge matters.

Democracy and the rule of law are two of the fundamental values of the EU that are shared among the EU Member States (MS). As of late, however, they have come under increasing pressure. Not only does the Union face criticism about its own democratic and rule of law shortcomings, but it also appears to struggle to find effective responses when faced with the erosion of these values in several of its MS. In this course, an interdisciplinary team of experts will discuss what democracy and the rule of law mean in Europe, how these principles are put into practice, and how they can be defended against backsliding. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research & Innovation programme under Grant Agreement no. 770142.
