About ILBC

Aim of the database

The development of the ILBC (International Law in Belgian Courts) database was initiated by the Ghent Rolin-Jaequemyns International Law Institute of the University of Ghent. The aim is to bring together, in an orderly manner, judgements of Belgian courts and tribunals dealing with public international law (treaty law, immunities, jurisdiction, succession, etc.). For each case a (non-confidential) full-text version is uploaded, provided with a very concise English summary of the relevance of public international law and linked to a number of keywords/tags.

Editorial board

The editorial board oversees and coordinates the submissions to the database.
