Welcome to the website of ALIFDO, the organisation that aims to bring together all of us lawyers working, in whatever capacity, for intergovernmental organisations committed to finance or development.
The idea behind ALIFDO is very simple. In every country of the world lawyers come together under some form of organisational structure to advance their interests, share information, provide opportunities for networking, etc. But no such organisation exists for us, lawyers working across the globe, in the numerous intergovernmental organisations that have been established in the last 60 years! Yet, because of the special role that our organisations play in the world economy, and the nature of our practice, most of us have more in common with each other than with lawyers working in the countries we happen to find ourselves in.
The “idea” of ALIFDO is to remedy this situation, and create an umbrella organisation (a “bar” if you want) for us – a place to share information relevant to our practice, a forum to network, learn about each other and the issues we are facing, an opportunity to meet periodically, and perhaps create a sense of solidarity and common purpose.
