Descriptif

International institutions are diverse and play a pivotal role in shaping the global legal order, addressing areas such as peace and security, environmental protection, health, and trade. This course focuses on intergovernmental organizations (e.g., the United Nations, World Bank, WTO), public-private partnerships (PPPs), and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), examining their legal frameworks, membership, structures, and functions. As multilateralism faces increasing criticism, there is an urgent need to reassess the role of international institutions, explore avenues for reform, and enhance mechanisms for accountability to ensure their effectiveness, legitimacy, and alignment with global governance principles.
