Speaking about mooting, Lucia said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s a real journey. You will have to hold on, but with good coaches and good teammates, that\u2019s what really matters. Trust each other, be open, communicate\u2026 Uni.lu is there to support you as well, and it has been a wonderful support. I enjoyed the entire process \u2014 the ups and the downs \u2014 and I can only assure you that it is all very worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her teammate Noan echoed that sentiment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe became vice world champions, which is definitely my biggest and proudest achievement as a law student. You\u2019re going to learn a lot \u2014 not just about the law, but about yourselves. If I had to give you a few pieces of advice, I would say: prepare yourselves by learning and working hard, but also be mentally prepared. And remember that a moot court is really a team effort\u2026 Work together, help each other, trust each other, motivate each other \u2014 and I&#8217;m sure everything will be just fine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the students spoke, their coaches, Dr Gabrielle Leterre and Theodora Liameti, shared their reflections on why moot court is such a powerful and meaningful journey. Dr Leterre, Postdoctoral Researcher at the FDEF, emphasised the importance of motivation and the central role of strong communication and collaboration, both within the team and with coaches, as key to success. Ms Liameti highlighted how the experience builds essential teamwork skills, fosters resilience through shared challenges, and offers a deeply personal and lasting impact that extends well beyond the competition itself.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-dev4-reusable-blocks-image  object-fit--cover\">\n    \n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-image unilux-custom-image-block\"\n                alt=\"Moot court 2025\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/11\/17083838\/20251111_185153-scaled.jpg\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/11\/17083838\/20251111_185153-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/11\/17083838\/20251111_185153-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/11\/17083838\/20251111_185153-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/11\/17083838\/20251111_185153-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/11\/17083838\/20251111_185153-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\"\n                style=\"object-position: 58.00% 0.00%; font-family: &quot;object-fit: cover; object-position: 58.00% 0.00%;&quot;; aspect-ratio: 16\/9; object-fit: cover; width: 100%;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n\/>    <\/figure>\n\n\n<p><sup><em>Dr Gabrielle Leterre and Theodora Liameti<\/em><\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ceremony closed with Susana Mu\u00f1oz\u2019s reminder that Moot Court is \u201cmore than a competition \u2014 it is a path of learning, growth, and self-discovery, reflecting the programme\u2019s core values of vision, caution, prudence, discretion, and wisdom.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the ceremony, a cocktail reception offered students the chance to connect with peers and members of the Uni.lu Moot Court Community.
