Moyer, Jr. This year marks the tenth anniversary of the CEELI Institute and the 20th anni- versary of CEELI, the technical assistance project that inspired the creation of the Institute. Advancing the rule of law was the core principle on which CEELI was founded, and building and strengthening the rule of law continue as the focus and mission of the CEELI Institute. The CEELI Institute and CEELI—which has led to the creation of the American Bar Association’s global Rule of Law Initiative—represent an international professional collaboration among lawyers and judges who are committed to developing societies based on the rule of law.
