Description:

The Union Internationale des Avocats (UIA) is a non-governmental organisation established in 1927 to establish international contacts between lawyers. It seeks to promote and defend the legal profession, uphold international principles of human rights and justice and develop the body of international legal knowledge. Commissions of the UIA carry out research and development work on more than 40 aspects of law and legal practice. The latest and several previous editions of the UIA's journal, Juriste International, is available in the News section, together with UIA statements on current issues. There is a searchable directory of corporate and individual members and the commission webpages provide reports, case studies and other documents. The site is available in English, French and Spanish.
