History of Asia Cup

​

The International Law Moot Court Competition "Asia Cup" is a moot court competition where students from Asian countries contend for their ability in writing memorials and presenting oral pleadings on a fictitious lawsuit case concerning international human rights and humanitarian laws.

It intends to promote of knowledge and understandings of international human rights and humanitarian law, to build and enlarge human networks by inviting Asian promising students and to contribute to protection and enforcement of human rights, not only in Japan but also around the Asian region.

Having been hosted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs since 2003, this International Law Moot Court is highly reputed among the Asian international law circles. Furthermore, cross-cultural experiences and construction of mutual understandings among delegation teams from Asian countries and Japanese participants raise outstanding occasion of international cooperation in human rights education and dissemination of international human rights and humanitarian treaties.

Since 2013, Asia Cup moot court competition has been organized by Asia Cup Organization Committee.
