ABA International Criminal Law Committee Quarterly Newsletter Issue 2 Now Available

A Word of Thanks

Dear Colleagues,

With the entirety of international criminal law falling within its remit, our Committee is never short of essential issues to cover. The first quarter of 2023 kept us exceptionally busy, and I am very thankful to my co-chairs, vice-chairs, and members for their efforts and contributions to the work we’ve accomplished so far. I also have deep gratitude to our expert guests who donated their time and knowledge by appearing as panelists on our webinars.

As we enter our second quarter (and prepare for the Section’s first all-analog Midyear Meeting in six years), I encourage everyone to stay involved, excited, and motivated. Remember that the American Bar Association, particularly the International Law Section, is a unique phenomenon in the world: it can influence change as nothing else can. Harnessing even a fragment of that power — and directing it in ways that can help improve the human experience on this planet — is the ultimate mission of the International Criminal Law Committee.
