The Union Internationale des Avocats (UIA - International Association of Lawyers) is an international non-governmental organisation created in 1927, that brings together more than 2,200 legal professionals from all over the world. Its central aims are to defend persecuted lawyers around the world through lobbying and advocacy work as well as promoting international collaboration between legal professionals through its seminars, training sessions and the annual UIA Congress. == Historical Context == At the end of the 19th century, most European lawyers worked within autonomous and independent Bars, each with their own traditions. However, after World War I, the idea grew among European lawyers that it was becoming essential to help certain Bars modernise and build international contacts 〔Gisèle Sapiro, L'espace intellectuel en Europe, La Découverte, 2009, 410 p. (ISBN 9782707157805, lire en ligne ()), p. 3. L’internationalisation des champs intellectuels dans l’entre-deux-guerres : facteurs professionnels et politiques, p 111-146〕 In July 1925, lawyers from Belgium, France and Luxembourg initiated the "Union Internationale des Avocats" project which took two years of collaboration to come to fruition on July 8, 1927 in Charleroi, Belgium 〔http://www.persee.fr/articleAsPDF/ridc_0035-3337_1949_num_1_3_18870/article_ridc_0035-3337_1949_num_1_3_18870.pdf " (), sur www.persee.fr.〕 The President of the Paris Bar Association, Georges Guillaumin.〔http://data.decalog.net/enap1/Liens/fonds/F9A43.pdf〕 was nominated as the Association’s first President. After the creation of the Union Internationale des Avocats, several bar associations became members.〔Robert N.
