PRINCIPLES
Integrated Approach:
We foster an integrated and comprehensive approach to international environmental, human rights and economic law.

Transparency & Accountability:
We set achievable goals, work to attain them and evaluate them periodically in an open way.

Mentorship & Capacity Development:
We support an open learning environment with respect for varying levels of knowledge and development.

Loyalty and Shared Commitment:
Partners and members can rely on each other around the world to support the integrity of the centre.

Support for Strategies on all Levels:
We recognise the need for distinct, effective levels of action, whether local, domestic, regional or global, though we focus on the international.

Synergy:
We build upon the synergies between the diverse talents and insights of our members and partners.

Equity:
We are committed to gender balance and the inclusion of diverse ethnic, racial, religious and age backgrounds, among others, in all our operations and activities.

Autonomy:
We will operate with objective, balanced strategies, which make the most efficient and balanced use of all resources, including the three faculties of law and the varied disciplines involved.

Focus and Analytical Rigour:
We will be precise and clear in defining our research objectives, and ensure peer review and accuracy in all products and methods.

Passive Tri-lingualism:
We will strive to provide abstracts or summaries of all research papers in French and Spanish, make available all essential information in the three languages, and ensure that English, Spanish and French speakers are comfortable.

Participation and Cooperation:
We involve, at appropriate levels, all relevant actors in dialogue and cooperation for the projects and governance of the CISDL.

Sustainable Operating Style:
We will strive to ensure that our activities have the lowest ecological footprint possible, procurement choices take social and environmental criteria into account, and healthy lifestyles are promoted for all those involved in the Centre.
