The ICJ in collaboration with the Rajpipla Social Service Society, India, organised in December 1987, a South-Asian Seminar on Legal Services for the Rural Poor and Other Disadvantaged Groups in South Asia.
From 25 March to 12 April 1987, the ICJ sent a Mission to South Korea to examine the March 1981 Constitution and the controversy over the electoral laws in the light of the forth-coming elections.
For the past few years, the ICJ has been organising seminars on particular human rights themes rather than on general issues. One of these themes, on which a series of seminars has already been organised, is the provision of legal services for the rural poor and other disadvantaged groups.
In 1986 the ICJ began a series of regional seminars at which participants would examine the norms being developed at the international level, discuss how these norms should be applied and adhered to in their regions, and make recommendations for their implementation.
