The United Nations International
Law Fellowship Programme is a six-week course organized annually by the
Codification Division of the United Nations Office of Legal Affairs, under the
Programme of Assistance in the Teaching, Study, Dissemination and Wider Appreciation
of International Law, which is one of the cornerstones of the United Nation’s
efforts to promote the rule of law. The International Law Fellowship Programme
is designed to enable qualified persons, in particular, mid-level government
legal officers and young teachers of international law from developing
countries, and countries with emerging economies, to deepen their knowledge of
international law.
The
Courses:
The
Fellowship Programme consists of a six-week summer course at the Peace Palace
in The Hague, the Netherlands. Fellows attend courses in public international
law at The Hague Academy of International Law and participate in lectures and
seminars organized by the Codification Division of the United Nations Office of
Legal Affairs. The courses are given in either English or French.The 2013 Programme will be conducted in
English.
Fellows are selected on the basis
of their qualifications, the needs of their respective countries and the
potential benefits they may derive from the fellowship in their professional
life. Preference will be given to candidates from countries whose nationals
have not been awarded a fellowship in the immediately preceding years and to
candidates from least developed countries.
Financial Arrangements:
The Fellowship Programme will
cover the fellowship recipient’s travel costs in economy class, medical
insurance, the training material and the registration fee for The Hague Academy
of International Law. In accordance with policies and procedures governing the
administration of United Nations fellowships, participants will receive a
stipend to cover their living expenses. Accommodation will also be provided by
the Fellowship Programme.
Additional places will be made
available for self-funded participants from developed countries and employees
of international organizations who will have to bear all costs associated with
their participation (travel, accommodation, living expenses, registration fee
