Council for International Relations and International Law (CIRIL)

Aim

The Council for International Relations and Legal Affairs (CIRIL) is a student-run committee at NLSIU. The committee’s main aim is to promote academic and cultural exchanges between NLSIU and leading law schools and universities across the world.

Through organizing various events and activities, such as seminars, conferences, and competitions, CIRIL seeks to create a platform for students to engage with international legal issues and perspectives. Additionally, CIRIL also invites guest speakers and scholars to share their knowledge and expertise with the NLSIU community while also providing students the opportunity to engage with the field through activities such as quizzes and reading circles.

Our Work

CIRIL seeks to create a platform for students to engage with international legal issues and perspectives. Therefore, the Committee has organised several conferences, on topics ranging from the Rohingya Refugee Crisis and its implications in India to International Mergers and Acquisitions, and Education, Jobs, and Politics. In a bid to encourage and provide scholars in the field with an audience, CIRIL has also hosted conferences on ‘Emerging Risk for Business in South Asia’ in collaboration with an Indian Defense Company. These events have been hugely interesting and informative to many in and beyond the campus. They have also proved to be of huge help for those exploring alternative career paths or are simply interested in the field of international law and international relations.

In addition to conferences, CIRIL also aims to provide students with the opportunity to engage with the field of international law and relations through hosting events such as quizzes, reading circles, and most famously, a pan-India essay competition on international trade law as well, in partnership with eminent organizations. Furthermore, CIRIL is also currently working on collaborating with other institutions to research on pressing issues in the field of international law and international relations.

Selection Process

The selection process in CIRIL is in accordance with the SBA Committee Selection process, which takes in students from across batches and programmes based on an application process and an interview component which gauges their demonstrable interest in the field of international law and international relations and past experiences. The current committee has 17 members.
