International Development Law is a strategic and operational tool for all involved institutional and non-institutional stakeholders on a global, regional and national level. For this reason the course deals mainly with the role and actions of States and international intergovernmental (political and financial IOs) and non-governmental (NGOs and national and multinational corporations) organizations working at the bilateral, multilateral and multi-bilateral level in order to frame policies, programs and projects as key components of the international development law, also introducing in-depth analysis over the
international legal and strategic environmental/climate component as well as the humanitarian patterns of development cooperation in pre-during-post conflict situations.
