Completion of necessary treaty formalities in relation to becoming party to a treaty;
Preparation of national legislation and drafting or reviewing of national laws aimed at ensuring compliance with international legal obligations or implementing United Nations model laws;
Drafting of non-legislative texts (such as arbitration rules) based on United Nations texts; and
Increasing familiarity with and appreciation of international law.
Current technical assistance programmes are undertaken in accordance with the mandate of each respective department, office, agency, fund or programme and within the existing financial resources allocated for such purposes under their respective programme budgets.
