Ateneo Society of International Law Details
The Society was formed by a group of law students who sought an arena wherein they could intelligently and convincingly exchange ideas concerning international law thereby achieving personal excellence at a level even greater than they imagine. The end goal is to give glory not only to the school, but, moreover, to God and the country. The object of the Society is to contribute to the advancement of legal education by the continuing pursuit of international law. Gathering law students, members of the faculty, law practitioners, and other persons interested in international law altogether, the Society endeavors to continually provide a forum for the discussion of legal issues through seminars, symposia, conferences, research, publications, and exchanges. Mainly to this end, the Society shall aim to promote the establishment and maintenance of international relations on the basis of principles of law by participating in various international law moot court competitions, particularly, but not limited to the Asia Cup International Law Moot Court Competition and Phillip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition. The Society shall then develop and harness the students' writing and researching skills through preparation of written pleadings and memorials as well as train and hone individual oral skills in accordance and on a par with the standards required by international law moot court competitions here and abroad. In line with all these objectives, the Society shall cooperate with similar societies in this and other countries.
