About ILI-ACLE:
Fifteen years ago, we established an Institute dedicated to providing
affordable and high-level post-professional education to public and private
sector officials in Uganda in the areas of law, governance, finance and project
management to equip these professionals with practical tools to stand
shoulder-to-shoulder and compete effectively with other professionals across
the globe. The relevance of our approach was quickly recognized, and over the
years, we began to draw public and private sector professionals engaged in
development from across countries in Africa.
Today, ILI-ACLE enjoys continuing collaboration with partners such as
the Open Society Initiative for East Africa in the area of International
Criminal Law and with the Danida Fellowship Centre in the areas of Promoting
Government Integrity and Anti-Corruption and the Human Rights-Based Approach to
Development. ILI-ACLE is also pursuing partnerships with major U.S. and
international law schools, including a new ABA approved collaboration with the
University of the Pacific McGeorge School of Law, to develop opportunities for
more diverse and sustainable capacity building for practicing lawyers, law
students and law professors. ILI-ACLE’s partnerships will continue to raise the
