At a time when respect for international law is under pressure, the work of the International Law Commission remains essential. In my statement to the UN General Assembly’s Sixth Committee, I highlighted the importance of strengthening the link between international law and national implementation; placing people’s justice needs at the heart of the international #RuleOfLaw conversation; and drawing on diverse legal systems and needs expressed by states.

My thanks to the new Permanent Representative of Ireland to the UN in New York, H.E. Martin Fraser, for an engaging discussion. Ireland and @IDLO share a strong commitment to the rule of law and a more just and peaceful world. I look forward to continuing our collaboration in support of these shared goals. @IrishMissionUN @IrlEmbRome #RuleOfLaw

Pleased to co-host with the Global Focal Point for the Rule of Law and the Permanent Mission of Liberia an event on Rule of Law in Action: Stories of Justice, Accountability and Partnerships, which demonstrated how strong partnerships and investment in the #RuleofLaw can prevent conflict and promote sustainable development and peace. @IDLO stands ready to bring its legal and institutional expertise to the joint work of the Global Focal Point.

Good exchange with H.E. Amar Bendjama, President of #ECOSOC and Permanent Representative of Algeria to the UN, on the importance of effective multilateral cooperation to promote the #RuleofLaw, and access to justice to accelerate implementation of #Agenda2030. I look forward to continued engagement with him during his Presidency to advance our shared objectives. @AlgeriaUN @UNECOSOC @IDLO

Appreciated meeting with Ambassador Trishala Simantini Persaud of Guyana, Chair of the Sixth Committee. At a challenging time for multilateralism, we discussed the Committee’s vital role in upholding and strengthening international law. @PMUN_GUY @IDLO #RuleofLaw

Pleased to be in New York for #InternationalLawWeek. I look forward to contributing to the discussion in the UN General Assembly’s Sixth Committee on the report of the International Law Commission, and meeting with numerous champions of the #RuleofLaw. This week offers an important opportunity to reaffirm respect for international law, access to justice and inclusive governance in preventing conflict and sustaining peace. @IDLO

On #UNDay, I reflect on a career in multilateralism and pay tribute to all my dedicated colleagues within the UN system and in other international organizations - present, past and some, sadly, passed away. I am very proud to stand with you all. As Director-General of @IDLO, I remain committed to strengthening partnerships, rebuilding trust, and advancing the #RuleOfLaw as the foundation of peace and sustainable development. @UN @antonioguterres @AminaJMohammed

баярлалаа H.E. Ganzorig Temuulen for kind invitation to visit Mongolia. It was truly inspiring to see our joint efforts to promote #accesstojustice and #ruleoflaw in action across your beautiful country and to learn more about the Ministry's priorities. I look forward to continued partnership between @IDLO and MOJHA.

Thanks to you Jaap for our discussion and your leadership in Mongolia. Always good to engage with a committed and experienced multilateralist. @IDLO looks forward to strengthening collaboration with the UN system. #RuleofLaw

An important milestone for justice in Mongolia! Pleased to join the Speaker of Parliament, the Chief Justice and other leaders to open the country's first Family and Youth Court. @IDLO has been proud to support this nationally led reform process, helping ensure that children and families receive the specialized, sensitive and fair treatment they deserve. #AccessToJustice @CanadaMongolia @SupremeCourtMn @BYAMBATSOGTS @judcouncil

It was a pleasure to meet Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Mongolia, Dr. Tsogt Tsend, an @IDLO partner since 2013. We look forward to strengthening our collaboration with @SupremeCourtMN under his leadership to advance the #RuleofLaw in Mongolia.

My thanks to MP Baasanjargal and members of the Women’s Caucus and sub-committees for their engagement and leadership, including in advancing @IDLO-supported research on rural and herder women and girls, and the new Procedural Code for the Family and Youth Court. @ParliamentMN

Enjoyed my meeting with H.E. Ina Marčiulionytė, EU Ambassador to Mongolia, in Darkhan-Uul province. The EU is a key partner for @IDLO. We value our close collaboration in Mongolia and the significant results achieved together in child protection, judicial engagement and transparency. We look forward to building on these achievements through continued cooperation. @EUAmbMNG @EUinMongolia @eudeleg_rome

Energized by my visit to Darkhan-Uul province for the “Yes, We Will Make It Happen” Children’s Forum, where 450 children shared recommendations to shape decisions affecting their lives. Discussions with government leaders and local stakeholders, including Governor B. Azjargal, highlighted the importance of translating children’s voices into action. In partnership with the EU, IDLO is pleased to support greater child participation in decision-making. @EUinMongolia

A judicial roundtable highlighted @IDLO’s close collaboration with Mongolia’s Supreme Court, Judicial Disciplinary Committee, Judicial General Council and Judicial Academy, to strengthen judicial capacity, promote transparency, and advance child-sensitive, victim-centred justice. Through this cooperation, we are working together to reinforce the #ruleoflaw, enhance trust in public institutions and ensure more accessible, responsive and inclusive justice for all. @SupremeCourtMN @judcouncil @judiscommn

Productive discussion with H.E. Stephen Doust, Ambassador of Canada to Mongolia. @IDLO is grateful to @CanadaMongolia for its generous support for our work. @GAC_Corporate

My thanks to H.E. A. Davaajargal, State Secretary of the Ministry of Family, Labour, and Social Protection of Mongolia, for our meeting and our long-standing partnership to address gender-based violence and increase access to justice for children. @mlspgovmn @IDLO

A pleasure to meet H.E. L. Munkhtushig, State Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Mongolia. As an @IDLO Member Party, Vice-President of our Assembly of Parties, and host of IDLO’s Ulaanbaatar office, Mongolia is a valued strategic partner. We look forward to further strengthening our cooperation to advance the #ruleoflaw. @MongolDiplomacy @MGLEmbassyItaly

A truly special experience visiting a female-led herder household to learn how lives and communities in South Gobi are being reshaped by climate pressures and a booming mining industry. @IDLO is working with local authorities, justice officials, and civil society to bring services to where people need them most. #PoweredByRuleofLaw
