Promoting the Restoration of the Rule of Law in Iraq

Established in July 2005, The International Institute for the Rule of Law is a registered Iraqi non-governmental organization. With an active and highly respected presence in Iraqi Rule of Law projects, IIRL helps facilitate human rights protections, international assistance, and judicial reforms.

Our objectives include: 

Supporting Judicial Traditions

We acknowledge and support the long and respected judicial tradition in Iraq and work to ensure its continued independence.

Providing Human Rights Assistance

We strive to bolster the Rule of Law in its various manifestations and provide assistance to needy individuals and groups to redress human rights violations.

Developing Legal Safeguards

Our group builds internal capacity among Iraqis with courses, conferences and symposia in order to develop internal safeguards to Rule of Law based legislation and institutions.

Supporting a Valid Constitution

We buttress efforts to write and support a constitution which reflects the aspirations of the Iraqi people and guarantees the Rule of Law.

Contributing Positively to Building a Vibrant Society

We support the long-standing and respected judicial tradition in Iraq and the preservation of its independence.

Even prior to the establishment of IIRL, our key officers were involved in advocating for the re-establishment of the Judicial Council and full independence from the Ministry of Justice, which was realized in Sept. 2003.
