IBA ICC Monitoring and Outreach Programme
The IBA’s International Criminal Court (ICC) Monitoring and Outreach Programme commenced in 2005 through funding provided by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.
The monitoring component follows and reports on the work and proceedings of the ICC, focusing particularly on issues affecting the fair trial rights of the accused; the implementation of the 1998 Rome Statute, the Rules of Procedure and Evidence, and related ICC documents, in the context of relevant international standards. The outreach component of the programme works in partnership with bar associations, lawyers and civil society organisations disseminating information and promoting debate on the ICC in different jurisdictions across the globe. Given the important role played by lawyers in advancing implementation of the Rome Statute, particular attention is paid to the issue of implementing legislation and publicity of ICC proceedings. The programme produces an E-Magazine for lawyers as well as periodic reports detailing the key findings and recommendations which are made available to the Court, IBA members, civil society and the public at large.

ICC Review Conference, Kampala, Uganda, 31 May – 11 June 2010
The inaugural Review Conference of the International Criminal Court (ICC) took place between 31 May 2010 and 11 June 2010 in Kampala, Uganda. The Review Conference was a milestone event for the ICC, presenting an opportunity for States Parties to the Rome Statute, civil society and the international community as a whole to reflect on the challenges, progress and impact of the ICC and international criminal justice, and to chart the way forward for the Court.
The IBA hosted two side events during the Review Conference. The first was a panel discussion to further promote the recently launched IBA/ICC campaign to encourage more qualified African women lawyers to sign up to the ICC List of Counsel. The second was an ICC moot court jointly organised with the Office of Public Counsel for Defence at the ICC. Details of both events will be online soon.
