\nThe support is aimed at strengthening the institutional development of the ALSF.<\/p>\n

Further, with KfW\u2019s support, the ALSF will undertake activities to facilitate the implementation of the Code of Conduct of the G7 CONNEX Initiative as a way of ensuring ethical, independent and high quality legal advice.<\/p>\n
