Bar Cooperation Project

Bars often need immediate support as they aim to develop their Bar and its programmes. The IBA's Human Rights Institute (HRI) focuses on providing long-term support, offering assistance in capacity building to Bars in developing countries, with the BIC providing immediate and short-term support. Having spoken to a number of representatives from bars around the world, it is clear that Bars' needs are extremely diverse and that support must be tailored to the specific needs of the Bars. Already, a number of requests have been received and a key role for the BIC will be to act as a coordinator between the suppliers and the requestors of the support.

The Bar Cooperation Programme was launched in Prague. Click here to review the introductory presentation. Bars are asked to submit requests for support to the Chair of the BIC through the IBA Office.
