Project details

What we need
  • A compilation of research on a specific topic (e.g. industry best practices, literature review, media contacts, industry trends, etc.) including a list of sources
  • Recommendations on areas for further exploration/research
  • Note: This project is not designed to be used for prospect or grant research
Additional details

IILA is looking to turn its initial list of potential foundations and institutional donors into a more concrete action list, and research potential entry points for discussions with these donors.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a detailed spreadsheet of a number of strong possibilities for grantseeking, which should be a great foundation for the further and practical next steps needed.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,239 , allowing us to train the government lawyers from a number of West African States on human rights law and investment law.

Perhaps self-evident - but expanding our staffing can expand our projects with a number of developing States whose needs are clear and wide-ranging!

Global Fairness Through Global Law

Our mission

IILA acts as pro bono in-house counsel for developing States on vital areas of international law matters - from human rights to trade to the environment to working on the borders of land and sea. IILA gives the voices and goals of these peoples the tangible benefits that international law can bring.

What we do

IILA is a non-governmental organization founded to increase the capacity of public international law departments of our Clients, primarily of developing States, to participate in the growing and vitally important field of public international law.

At its core, IILA acts as supplemental "in-house counsel" for those States needing support in the expanding and vitally important field of public international law. Through the work of our legal advisers and our network of affiliated experts IILA builds capacity for our Clients.

IILA's Clients must address a wide range of topics within public international law. The key to IILA's capacity building activities is in providing our Clients with a range of integrated and holistic training, research and advice - but all undertaken from the unique vantage point of "in-house counsel".
