The Association shall have as objectives the promotion and pursuit, on an international level, of studies and  knowledge of legal issues related to the peaceful utilisation of nuclear energy, with a focus on protecting persons, property and the environment; the exchange of information between members of the Association; and scientific co-operation with other organisations having similar objectives.

In particular, the Association may organize congresses, discussions, lectures, conferences and seminars and support or edit publications.

Founding of the Association

At the beginning of the 1970's, the idea occurred to several specialists and experts of nuclear law, to create an international association intended to strengthen relations between all jurists concerned by problems of nuclear law.

The Association has been constituted for an unlimited period. The head office has been established in Brussels. Can become members of the Association, natural persons qualified in the fields to which the activities of I.N.L.A. relate. Membership has to be approved by the Board of Management.
