IBA Activities for
Developing Countries
Assistance has been given by a
number of IBA member organi-
sations to Bars and Law Societies
in developing countries. David Biart,
the Co-Chairman of the Section on
General Practice, Committee on
Law Office Management and Tech-
nology will be visiting Zambia,
Zimbabwe, Kenya, Lesotho, Nigeria
and Ghana in the early summer to
give talks to groups of local lawyers
and Law
Soc i e t i es
/ Bar
Associations on the Use of Modern
Technology in Law Offices. The IBA
Educational Trust is making a sub-
stantial subvention to the cost of
David Biart's visit. The Trust also
gave substantial financial assis-
tance to the African Regional
Seminar and continues to support
the programme for the placing of
young lawyers from developing
countries in European / North
American Law Firms.
Human Rights
The IBA has joined with other
lawyer organisations in making
r ep r esen t a t i ons on behalf of
lawyers who have been unlawfully
detailed by the Civil Authorities or
harassed or impeded in their duty
of representing clients. Represen-
tations have been made to the
au t ho r i t i es in Algeria, Chile,
Colombia, Fiji, Indonesia and
Singapore. In a number of cases the
representations appear to have
been influential in achieving the
removal or relaxation of the
restrictions imposed on the lawyers
concerned.
