OUR EVENTS
Academic & Career Opportunities
In 2024/2025 ASA International Law has placed a strong emphasis on career-focused events to help our members build the practical skills and professional confidence needed for a future in international law.
​
We’ve introduced a series of hands-on workshops and networking opportunities designed to bridge the gap between academic studies and the professional world.
In addition, our members receive a monthly newsletter filled with tailored content - ranging from internship opportunities and academic calls-for-papers to updates on upcoming lectures. These resources are curated to align with your interests in public and private international law, human rights, diplomacy, and beyond.

ASA’s magazine is a platform for students to explore, reflect on, and engage with pressing issues in international law.

OUR ANNUAL TRIPS
Geneva & The Hague
Each year, ASA organizes a four-day study trip to Geneva, giving students the unique opportunity to experience international law in action. Participants gain firsthand insight into the institutions they often explore in class.​​
Students meet professionals and diplomats, participate in guided tours, and gain firsthand insight into the day-to-day workings of major international legal bodies.
We also organize shorter excursions to The Hague - home to the International Court of Justice, the International Criminal Court, and several other institutions central to international law and diplomacy.​​
​​Our goal is to foster an inclusive community where members can explore global legal issues, share ideas, and make the most of the Netherlands' unique role as a hub for international law!​
