Current Team
Alessandra Reputin
Alessandra Reputin (22) is a seventh-semester law student at the University of Verona and an Erasmus student at the University of Cologne. During her student exchange in Canada (2019), she took a course in Canadian law and discovered her interest in law. For the last two years she has been passionately learning about international and European law, especially labour law, human rights and non-discrimination. Originally from South Tyrol, Italy, she is fluent in German, Italian and English. By participating in the Moot Court, Alessandra wants to put her legal skills into practice, deepen her knowledge in the field of European human rights protection and improve her English language skills. She is looking forward to meeting many students from different countries through the Moot Court and will undoubtedly build on this experience.
Nil Su Ketenci
Nil Su Ketenci (21) is a sixth-semester law student at the University of Cologne. Her interest in international legal issues stems from her bilingual upbringing and a six-month stay abroad after graduating from high school. This interest motivated Nil Su to gain international legal experience during her studies. Currently, Nil Su is taking the Certificate of US Law (CUSL) and improving her legal English skills. She has also completed a Turkish Legal Language course to optimise her legal Turkish skills. Her interest in human rights deepened during her volunteer work at the Refugee Law Clinic Cologne as a counsellor for people in need. Nil Su is looking forward to gaining valuable insights for her legal career during the Moot Court, improving her public speaking skills, gaining her first experience with human rights on an international level and meeting international like-minded people.
Julie Dovern
Julie Dovern (21) is a fifth-semester law student at the University of Cologne. Julie's interest in human rights and European law began at secondary school and played a fundamental role in her decision to study law. In March 2024, she completed an internship at the Academy for European Human Rights Protection, which further strengthened her interest in international and European legal issues. In addition to her studies, Julie volunteers for UNICEF. In this role, she raises awareness and promotes the protection of children's rights through various campaigns. By participating in the HPMCC, Julie hopes to gain a deeper insight into human rights issues, improve her English language skills and interact with national and international moot court participants.
Mounira Hssaine
Mounira Hssaine (20) is a fourth-semester law student at the University of Cologne and has been a recipient of the Deutschlandstipendium scholarship for talented and high-achieving students since the winter semester of 2023/2024. During her studies, she became increasingly interested in human rights and the protection of minority groups. By attending the HPMCC, Mounira not only aims to deepen her understanding of European human rights, but also to improve her public speaking and English language skills and to network with other international students. She wants to go beyond the usual legal studies and step out of her comfort zone. She sees the HPMCC as an opportunity to learn from experienced lawyers and to further her personal development.
