Gartner elected vice chair of ASIL interest group

David Gartner, associate professor, recently was elected to be the vice chair of the International Organizations Interest Group of the American Society of International Law.

ASIL’s International Organizations Interest Group members work closely with other organizations to create a strong and mutually supportive group of scholars and practitioners who seek common understanding of the evolving multilateral order. The IOIG publishes a newsletter, organizers panels at the ASIL Annual Meting and contributes to regional conferences. It also published bi-annual reports on important developments in many international organizations.

Gartner teaches constitutional law, international institutions, foreign relations law and global health law and policy. His current research focuses on the role of innovative international institutions and non-state actors in shaping international law and the response to global challenges in areas such as global health, development, education and the environment. He is a Nonresident Fellow at the Brookings Institution and a term member of the Council on Foreign Relations. Before joining the faculty, Gartner was a fellow at the Brookings Institution and a Visiting Scholar at Harvard University’s Program in Ethics and Health.
