Abstract:

The International Criminal Court (ICC) was established on 1 July 2002 after ratification by 60 states of the Rome Statute, with which the Court is governed. The ICC is the first permanent, treaty based, international tribunal, which tries for the most serious crimes to the international community, which are the genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes. Its development was followed and facilitated by the Nongovernmental Organizations Coalition for the International Criminal Court (further the Coalition or the CICC), formed in 1995, when the idea of creation of permanent international criminal court was received its second life. The Coalition became an important figure in the process of the ICC creation, and participated in all phases of its progress. The aim of this work is to analyze the CICC contribution into the ICC and to find out its role in the Courts everyday work.
