The INNOCENT project, supported by the European Union, is dedicated to improving the application of the presumption of innocence, particularly in the context of electronic evidence, across Central and Eastern Europe. The project aims to uphold the procedural rights of individuals suspected or accused of crimes, emphasizing their right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.

Implemented in Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia, the project brings together various partner organizations, including Adam Mickiewicz University (Poland), Bratislava Policy Institute (Slovakia), CEELI Institute (Czech Republic), Human Rights House Zagreb (Croatia), Law and Internet Foundation (Bulgaria), and Science and Research Centre of Koper (Slovenia).

Targeting judges, prosecutors, lawyers, and legal aid practitioners, the INNOCENT project offers an opportunity to enhance knowledge and skills regarding the presumption of innocence and the use of electronic evidence. Through a series of activities, including international workshops, national trainings, seminars, webinars, and a final conference, professionals will engage in discussions, share experiences, and gain insights into evaluating electronic evidence within the framework of the presumption of innocence.
