Inter-American Human Rights Moot Court Competition


Academy Co-Director Diego Rodríguez-Pinzón introduces Alumni Association President Juan Pablo Albán at the 2006 Awards Luncheon

Welcome to the Friends of the Competition!

The purpose of this page is to establish and maintain a communication space between all the Inter American Human Rights Moot Court Competition Participants Society members and related persons.

Our goal is to continue to develop relationships with Competition participants long after they have written their memorials and presented their oral arguments. Competition alumni have gone on to start non-profit organizations, work at newly-created State-level human rights commissions, and teach international human rights law to future human rights activist throughout the region.

Check back here often as the alumni group expands. We intend to highlight alumni and connect past and future participants.

Join us as we begin a new decade of stimulating law students throughout the world to question the status quo and to use the law to redress human rights violations.

NEW BOARD OF DIRECTORS!

It is with great pleasure that we announce the results of the elections for the 2007-2008 Board of Directors of the Inter-American Human Rights Moot Court Competition Participant Association, which took office October 4, 2007: 

President: Ángela Ramírez

First Vice-president: Carlos Bernal

Second Vice-president: David Cordero

Secretary: Santiago Pérez Calderón

Treasurers: Karlos Castilla and Adolfo Sánchez Alegre

For the period 2007-2008, the Board of Directors will have two treasurers, due to the fact that there was a tie between two candidates and the Draft Bylaws do not establish what process to follow in case of ties.

We want to congratulate the new members of the Board and we trust they will do a fabulous job in their mandates as well as in constantly supporting the development of the Competition.
