The protocol of intentions co-signed by the chairman of the OAB Federal Board, Ophir Cavalcante, provides for Brazilian attorneys to be trained to work at international negotiations. That includes attendance at seminars, courses and lectures relating to the topic which are relevant to the training of both lawyers and diplomats. <\/p>\n
The professionals covered by the agreement will take internships at the General Dispute Settlement Coordination Office (CGC), i.e. the Foreign Ministry body in charge of Brazil\u2019s participation in the Dispute Settlement System of the World Trade Organization (WTO). According to the OAB, the contemplated attorneys may also be sent to Brazil\u2019s mission at the WTO in Geneva, Switzerland. <\/p>\n
In a press statement released by the OAB, Cavalcante stated that the stints at the WTO will allow Brazilian attorneys to represent the country in major trade-related issues at the WTO. The attorneys will be appointed by OAB\u2019s Federal Board, pending approval from the Ministry of Foreign Relations. <\/p>\n
