Since 2022, the Faculty of Law at the University of Namur has been inviting students and teachers to come together around a common theme every year.

First a student, then an assistant at the Faculty of Law, Manuela Cadelli has now been a judge at the Namur Court of First Instance for almost a quarter of a century, but she also finds the time and resources to get involved. Time for scientific collaboration, for example, since she is a member of the CRIDS (Centre de Recherche Information, Droit et Société) at UNamur, where she is interested in the role of artificial intelligence in the judge's decision-making process. Time, too, to fight battles. Fighting for a stronger, more supportive, fairer justice system. Through her books, her "cartes blanches" and her various mobilizations, she asserts her positions, making her one of the "voices" of the Belgian justice system. Deeply human, she is committed to respecting the rights of each and every individual. And the citizen pays her back in spades. In the "pas perdus" rooms of the Palais de Justice de Namur, where she welcomes us, not a minute goes by without someone coming up to greet her.
