Senior Enzo Abbate is one of eight New Mexican students selected by the nonprofit New Mexican Human Rights Projects to participate in the Model International Criminal Court (MICC) mock trials in Krzyzowa, Poland. The trip is nearly 100 percent funded by a German organization that supports projects with Israeli, German, Polish and U.S. high school students. The MICC trials are set for Feb. 17-22 at the International Youth Center in Krzyzowa, Poland, about 210 miles southeast of Berlin. The youth center is a historical site where a German resistance group, the “Kreisau Circle,” fought against the Nazi regime and developed the plans for a democratic rebuilding of post-World War II Germany.
