The Belgian Society of International Law was founded in April 1977 and is registered as an international, non-profit organization. According to its statutes, the Society aims to contribute, in a spirit of scientific objectivity, to the progress of international law, and to maintain permanent contact between all those who, in Belgium or abroad, are interested in this area. The Society currently has more than 70 members from Belgium and abroad. Our members are professors, scholars, Ph.D. researchers or practitioners who are based in Belgium or abroad, and who are active in the fields of public or private international law.
