\n\nThe International Bar Association (IBA) is the recipient of the 2021 Aptissimi award for Contribution to the Legal Sector and Society. Organised by the ESADE Alumni Law Club, the Award recognises the outstanding contribution of organisations and individuals to the development of, or innovations in, business law as well as positive impacts on society.
\r\n
\r\nPatricia Valenti, Director of ESADE Alumni, commented: \u2018Among the many merits of the IBA, the panel has especially valued its leading role in the global development of the profession and its values since its founding more than 70 years ago, highlighting the promotion of human rights, the rule of law and the administration of justice. The IBA is a global reference point for the legal profession and notably contributes to shaping the profession. The IBA is the most important worldwide association of international lawyers and has proven to be an unparalleled forum for legal professionals to meet and debate, with a large social impact beyond a strictly legal sense.\u2019
\r\n
\r\nNow in their 13th year, the Aptissimi \u2013 Latin for the most competent \u2013 Awards were introduced to acknowledge individual or institutional ethos and endeavours that align with the core values of the global business and law school ESADE; integrity, sensitivity, diversity, contributing to the common good and working towards a fairer and more sustainable society.
\r\n
\r\nIBA reaction to receiving the Aptissimi Award for the Contribution to the Legal Sector and Society includes:
\r\n
\r\nIBA President Sternford Moyo, Senior Partner and Chairman at Scanlen & Holderness in Zimbabwe, commented: \u2018The Aptissimi Awards have long been a marker of excellence.
\r\nIt is a great honour for the International Bar Association to be recognised by such a key player in the field of legal education as ESADE. We are proud to be a leader in the global development of the legal profession, and to play a part in shaping it for the good of society.\u2019
\r\n
\r\nAlmudena Arp\u00f3n de Mend\u00edvil, IBA Vice President and Partner at G\u00f3mez-Acebo & Pombo in Madrid, said: \u2018This award is a great honour for the International Bar Association and for the entire legal sector. The IBA was formed under the conviction that it may, and must, contribute to stability, to global peace, to progress and ultimately to the promotion and protection of the Rule of Law. Since its founding, and thanks to the work of so many volunteers everywhere and of a great executive team, the IBA contributes to the building of a robust legal sector where business law practitioners and ESADE, as a leader in legal education in Spain, have a principal role.\u2019
\r\n
\r\nIBA Executive Director, Dr Mark Ellis, added: \u2018In conferring this accolade on the International Bar Association, the judging panel has recognised the IBA\u2019s key contribution to the global development of the legal profession, as well as its focus on the promotion of human rights, the rule of law and access to justice. It is humbling to be recognised for the strides we have made in these areas.\u2019
\r\n
\r\nThe award ceremony took place on Thursday 7 October 2021 in Barcelona, Spain. Ms Arp\u00f3n de Mend\u00edvil received the award on behalf of the organisation.
