PROGRAMME FOR YOUNG LAWYERS FROM
DEVELOPING COUNTRIES TO ATTEND THE IBA
ANNUAL CONFERENCE IN TOKYO
The IBA is granting a scholarship to selected bar associations to offer to young lawyers (up to and including
the age of 35) in their jurisdiction who would like to attend the IBA Annual Conference, but who may find it
financially impossible to do so. The scheme will be arranged between the IBA and the bar association or law
society. Seven candidates will be chosen by the IBA to attend from each of the participating bar associations, along
with a senior staff member from the bar such as Executive Director or International Liaison Officer.
The selection criteria for the programme is that candidates:
•	 Will be shortlisted by their local bar association or law society
•	 Should have over 3 years practice experience
•	 Are a current member of their Bar Association
•	 Must disclose if they are related to a member of staff at the bar association or an Officer of the IBA.
•	 Must not have attended a previous IBA Annual Conference
•	 Must write a short piece (maximum 500 words) on why they would like to attend the conference and
	 what they hope to get out of it
•	 Must have sufficient proficiency in English to benefit from attending, as 	
	 conference sessions are in English.
•	 Must note that early travel arrangements should be made to allow for 	
	 any delays in the administration of any necessary visas.
Participants selected for the programme will receive:
•	 free registration for the IBA Annual Conference, 19-24 October 2014, Tokyo, Japan;
•	 a contribution towards a return economy flight to Tokyo;
•	 accommodation costs (room and breakfast) while attending the conference;
•	 A stipend of US$50 a day
Following the conference we will ask the participants to submit a short report about the sessions they attended
and what they enjoyed most about the conference.
Application and Administration Process
To participate in the programme the member bar association must agree to undertake the following in relation to
the applicants:
1.	 Select up to 14 applicants and ask them to complete the application form attached.
2.	 Check that all the application forms have been fully completed and submit them to Elaine Owen
(elaine.owen@int-bar.org) at the IBA by Friday 9 May 2014.
3.	 In May, seven of the applicants from each bar will be selected for places at the conference by a selection 	
committee formed of three bar association representatives who sit on the IBA Management Board.
4.	 The IBA will write to the bar association confirming which applicants have been successful by 13 June 2014 	
and the bar should communicate the decision to all the applicants.
5.	 The IBA will then confirm to each applicant, and provide a registration form for the conference to be submitted 	
to the IBA office following the procedure set out. These forms should be sent directly to Elaine Owen who 	
will confirm internally that the registration fee is waived. Applicants cannot register using the online
system available on the IBA website.
Please note, that should the applicant wish to attend any social events, these must be paid for directly, and
payment card details included on the registration form.
Travel and Accommodation
1.	 Each of the selected delegates should book his/her flight directly and by no later than 25 July 2014 as the most
favourable costs for flights will be available well in advance of the conference. Should they be unable to meet
this payment directly at this point, the bar association or their law firm should assist as the IBA cannot make
any reimbursement for these payments until after the conference. Please note that if the delegate does not
arrive at the conference, the IBA cannot reimburse the loss on the flight costs.
2.	 Each of the selected delegates should make arrangements for any necessary visas as soon as possible. If there
are problems with visas, the IBA should be notified as early as possible.
3.	 Accommodation will be at a hotel organised and paid for by the IBA. To assist our hotel contractor, Judy Lane
Consulting (JLC), in booking the rooms, the bar association will be asked to submit the names, address,
email address and flight details (flight number, date and time of arrival and departure times) as outlined on the
accommodation form. JLC will confirm the rooms directly to each delegate using the email address provided.
The accommodation form will be sent out in June.
4.	 A stipend of US$50 per day will be provided in cash at the registration area of the conference and a time will
be set when this will be available.
Travel Insurance
Please note that selected participants are responsible for arranging their own travel insurance to cover their travel
to the conference.
