The European Lawyers Foundation organised a project financed by the International Bar Association (IBA) in the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) region. Its main goal, implemented in collaboration with the SADC Lawyers Association and the Law Association of Zambia, was to train lawyers from the SADC region on issues related to the globalisation of legal services. A training conference took place in Livingstone (Zambia) on 3 and 4 April 2018. International speakers addressed issues such as the creation of international legal joint ventures, international subcontracting, how to raise capital in international markets, and international arbitration. Lawyers from various SADC countries participated in this conference.
