AustLII operates a number of free-access multi-country Legal Information Institutes, namely AsianLII, CommonLII and WorldLII. Over 200 of the databases accessible via these portals are developed and maintained by AustLII, and many more are provided by other members of the Free Access to Law Movement.

AustLII's international work is funded separately from its Australian services. The current sources of funding for AustLII's international work are listed below.

AustLII's international contributors - an invitation to join us

AustLII's international free access services are not funded by usage charges or advertisements. As with its Australian services, AustLII's funding is provided by a range of contributors. By broadening its range of contributors as far as possible, AustLII aims to lighten the burden on any particular organisation of funding access to legal information, and to ensure sustainability of these international services.

New contributors are welcome. All contributions will be duly recognised on this page and by other means. Enquiries should be addressed to AustLII's Co-Directors Professor Graham Greenleaf, Professor Andrew Mowbray, or Mr Philip Chung, or you can use our form.

AustLII thanks all those organisations that provide it with funding, data and other assistance for its international work.
