The 49th Course on International
Law organized by the Inter-American
Juridical Committee (CJI) and the Department of
International Law of the Secretariat for Legal
Affairs of the Organization of American States
(OAS), concluded successfully
in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on August 16th.
The closing ceremony was held at the Escola
da Magistratura do Estado do Rio de Janeiro
(EMERJ) and was co-sponsored by that
institution. During the ceremony the following
representatives took the floor, Dr. Dante Negro,
Director of the Department of International Law,
Dr. George Bandeira Galindo, President of the
Inter-American Juridical Committee, and Judge
Des. Marco Aurélio Bezerra de Melo, Director
General of the EMERJ.
Throughout the
two-week course, 36 participants from 14
countries from the Americas learned about
various topics in the field of public and
private international law, as well as new legal
developments in the Inter-American system. The
faculty included officials from international
organizations, academics, judges, arbitrators,
and internationalists. The students also had the
opportunity to visit the facilities of the
Inter-American Juridical Committee and have a
dialogue with its members.
Next year we

Course on International Law. The Course will be
held from August 4 to 15, 2025. We also wish to
