The Internship Programme for Legal Drafters and National Authority Representatives is a one week legal workshop where participants are equipped with the technical capacity and requisite skills to complete a draft of national implementing legislation and to pursue its adoption when they return to their home country. It is held at the OPCW Headquarters in The Hague from 4 to 8 March, 1 to 5 July, and 18 to 22 November 2019.
Objectives
Upon completion of the Programme, participants will have developed a preliminary draft implementing bill that accords with the provisions of the Convention and is suitable for submission to parliament.
The internship also seeks to support States Parties that may already have a legislative framework in place but require additional support to draft administrative measures.
