The ICCAL Network

Impact of our network

Theory and research

Universities and academics contribute studies on constitutional law, human rights, democracy, and the rule of law.

Use in practice

Courts, legal clinics, and NGOs apply ICCAL principles in real contexts, defending the rights of individuals and communities facing vulnerability or historical discrimination.

Concept of interaction

As a regional approach to transformative constitutionalism, ICCAL seeks to provide normative and constitutional responses to the structural deficits and socioeconomic challenges faced by Latin American countries.

It addresses common problems such as the exclusion of social groups, fragile normative systems, and the difficulty of fully guaranteeing rights.

The Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law (Heidelberg, Germany) has promoted the creation of a network of allied institutions with which research projects, events, and publications have been developed.
