United Nations International Law Commission (ILC)

The United Nations International Law Commission (ILC) is a body of legal experts established to help develop and codify international law, which governs relations between countries. Its role is to analyze legal issues, propose new rules, clarify existing laws, and prepare draft treaties or conventions. The ILC's work supports consistency and fairness in international dealings, with recommendations often serving as a basis for treaties and global legal standards. Comprising specialists from diverse legal backgrounds, it operates transparently to promote peaceful and predictable international relations.
