The Foundation shall promote access to justice, training of lawyers, activities relating to the exercise of the profession of lawyer, the rule of law and legal services and substantive developments in the law itself, the defence and protection of human rights and human rights defenders, and international justice. The Foundation shall work at both European and international level. The Foundation, which is a network composed of Bars and Law Societies from Europe, will fulfil its objective through the implementation of projects together.
