The American Bar Association Rule of Law Initiative (ABA ROLI) is a non-profit program dedicated to promoting rule of law around the world. The ABA created its first overseas rule of law program, the Central European and Eurasian Law Initiative or CEELI, in 1990 after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Today, ABA ROLI implements legal reform programs in nearly 40 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe and Eurasia, Latin America and the Caribbean, and the Middle East and North Africa. ABA ROLI has more than 400 professional staff working in the United States and abroad, including a cadre of short- and long-term expatriate volunteers who, since the program’s inception, have contributed more than $200 million in pro bono technical legal assistance. ABA ROLI established its office in Beirut, Lebanon, in January 2007. Its programs have, to date, focused on human rights and access to justice, clinical legal education and anti-corruption and public integrity.
