Number and type of members: |
Membership: 800-1000 LAWASIA’s primary strength lies in its focus on the Asia Pacific legal community, represented by the law societies and bar associations that form this social unit and are the basis of LAWASIA as an organisation. However, in recognising the burgeoning interest that exists outside the ESCAP region in engaging with its legal profession, the LAWASIA constitution now also allows limited organisational membership from non-ESCAP countries, where these organisations support the objectives, the focus and the work of LAWASIA. |
Affiliation with NGO networks: |
LAWASIA holds consultative status with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations, observer status with the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) and operational relations status with UNESCO. |
Funding structure: |
Membership fees or dues
