Resources

In our efforts to promote understanding about International Law and inspire interest in the subject, we have produced several information resources for all to use.

The Practitioner's Guide to International Law

The Practitioner’s Guide to International Law is the first publication of its kind in Australia.

Launched in February 2010, it provides an introductory overview of certain aspects of international law for Australian legal practitioners.

The Guide aims to facilitate greater understanding of the area and to promote recourse to international law in resolving disputes before Australian courts and international fora.
