The Institute of the Right of Peace and Development (IDPD, French: Institut du droit de la paix et du développement) is a French research institute in the field of international law located in Nice, France.
IDPD was established by René-Jean Dupuy (former president of Hague Academy of International Law) in 1968, and a brainchild of the University of Nice Sophia Antipolis. It proposes MA, and Ph.D level programmes in various fields of international law and European law, including international security, functioning of international organizations, law of the sea and space law.
Considering the aims it pursues, the Institute works in close collaboration with other international organisations, such as International Institute of Humanitarian Law, Sanremo or Hague Academy of International Law.
