For more than sixty years, the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition has brought together law students from nearly 100 countries to provide them with an opportunity to learn how they can help create a peaceful world through international law. The mission of the International Law Students Association has always been for students to take the lessons they have learned from the Jessup back to their home countries, and when they become leaders, to put those lessons into practice. We have held steadfast to that aspiration even when, as now, real-world events have directly impacted our students and the broader Jessup community.

We would like to thank Lesley Benn for her decade of service to the Jessup as she steps down as ILSA Executive Director. Lesley has consistently pushed to make the Jessup the biggest and best moot court competition in the world, and there is no doubt that tens of thousands of law students have been positively impacted by her efforts. While Lesley will stay involved in the Jessup community, we will all miss her constant presence and leadership. Tessa Walker will serve as Interim Executive Director of ILSA until a permanent replacement can be appointed. On behalf of the entire Jessup community, thank you and good luck, Lesley!
