What is IPLD Africa Plus?
The IPLD Africa Plus initiative, supported by the Directorate-General for Development Cooperation of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, is designed to promote the application of Unidroit’s international legal instruments. These instruments play a pivotal role in the unification of private and commercial law, with a strong emphasis on sustainable development.

Participants will gain in-depth knowledge of Unidroit’s legal instruments, equipping them to:
- Implement international legal instruments in their jurisdictions,
- Foster international collaboration, and
- Enhance technical expertise in private and commercial law
