The Antonio Cassese Initiative promotes the creation of a global network of jurists and trainers “without borders”, who want to share their legal knowledge and expertise with judges, prosecutors and lawyers working in countries facing challenges in the administration of justice.

The Antonio Cassese Initiative is governed by the Antonio Cassese Foundation for Justice, Peace and Humanity and assisted by a Steering Committee, which supports the activities of the Antonio Cassese Initiative. The President of the Antonio Cassese foundation is Professor Harmen van der Wilt.
