Institutional

Founded in 2000 as a non-profit academic organization, we have worked from the outset to transform realities and connect Paraguay with the best of the international legal world. One of our central objectives has been to demonstrate that Paraguay can position itself at the heart of the most relevant legal debates, actively participating in the generation of knowledge and the development of modern and effective regulatory projects.

Therefore, we have built a network of collaborations and agreements with leading institutions, such as the Organization of American States (OAS), the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL), the Hague Conference on Private International Law, the UNIDROIT Institute in Rome, the Latin American Integration Association (ALADI), the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), and the Permanent Review Tribunal of MERCOSUR, among others.

This international projection has consolidated us as an observer and active collaborator in normative and academic processes of regional and global scope, and has been reflected in historical milestones for Paraguay and the region: such as the organization of the General Congress of the International Academy of Comparative Law in 2022, the External Program of The Hague Academy of International Law in 2024 and the celebration in Asunción of the 30 years of the UNIDROIT Principles.

Mission

To promote training, research and academic cooperation focused on legal innovation and contemporary debates with local and regional impact.

Vision

Promover la formación, la investigación y la cooperación académica orientadas a la innovación jurídica y los debates contemporáneos con incidencia local y regional.

Furthermore, to improve accessibility and ensure the proper systematization of laws in Paraguay, we have launched an ambitious regulatory reorganization project in key areas such as commerce, energy, mining, and social security, which has had a significant impact. Over the past twenty-five years, we have promoted academic programs, specialized publications, and collaborative initiatives aimed at strengthening the national legal system. Nearly a thousand academics, both local and international, have participated in these projects, benefiting a large number of students and professionals. Our commitment remains steadfast: to continue providing training, creating spaces for discussion, and contributing to the development of a robust and globally inclusive legal framework.
