SUNSGLOW

"With the primary mission of SUNSGLOW defined, the institution was established in 1999. The immediate impetus was a response to a World Bank recommendation that countries which do not periodically train their judicial and legal communities do not attract outside investors.

"The birthplace was NOVA Law Center, NOVA Southeastern University, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where SUNSGLOW’s founder, Dr. Yassin El-Ayouty, was a Distinguished Visiting Professor. Under the acronym of “SUNSGLO” (The Center for) “the Study of the United Nations Systems and the Global Legal Order”, it began as a not-for-profit. It then evolved in 2003 into a for-profit entity, with a view to enhancing its program effectiveness. In the process, a “w” was added to its name, making it now stand for the glow of the sun of the Rule of Law." [1]
