Insurance, Shipping and Aviation Law Institute
Description
The Insurance Shipping and Aviation Law Institute (ISALI) was founded as the Insurance law Institute in 2012 as part of the Centre for Commercial Law Studies (CCLS) to support high quality teaching and research in all areas of Insurance Law. It is being relaunched in the academic year 2019-2020 as the Insurance, Shipping and Aviation Law Institute better to reflect the fields of expertise of its widening academic membership.
The Institute’s focus is knowledge creation through rigorous and cutting-edge research with real-world impact, and its dissemination through world-class educational programmes.
The Institute is active in engaging with, and drawing support from industry, with members being actively involved in the Committee of the British Insurance Law Association (BILA) and the BILA Journal; the Drafting Committee of the UNIDROIT Principles of Reinsurance Contract Law project. Institute members specialising in insurance have been involved in research projects led by the Lloyd’s Innovation Department and the English Law Commission.
Institute experts in Shipping Law have been involved in work by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO), the Comité Maritime International (CMI), the Baltic and International Maritime Council (BIMCO), the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) and the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL); the European Commission and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Two academic members are former Lord Justices of Appeal and have decided multiple landmark cases in the Institute’s fields of expertise. The Institute practitioner membership is actively involved, with a number of members contributing to the teaching of many specialist courses.
