The Centre for International
and Public Law (CIPL) is part of the ANU College of Law at The Australian National
University. It was established in 1990 with an objective to focus and develop
its areas of expertise on the relationship between governments, and between
governments and their citizens, from both a domestic and international perspective.
The Director of the Centre is
Professor
Kim Rubenstein, following a distinguished record of eminent past
Directors. The Centre's Advisory
Board comprises members of the judiciary, the university and senior government
officials.
It also convenes an
annual
lecture in honour of Geoffrey Sawer whose academic interests spanned
the work of the Centre and who was the first full-time Professor of
Law at the ANU. CIPL organises intensive teaching programs for both
government and non-government organisations in human rights law and
other areas of international and public law.
