The Clarke Program has co-sponsored conferences with partners throughout the United States and the world. The Program often works in concert with other institutions at Cornell, including the Cornell East Asia Program, Cornell Law School and the Université Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne's Summer Institute of International and Comparative Law, and the Cornell Center for the Study of Economy and Society.
As of 2007, the Clarke Program also sponsors the Clarke International Consortium on Law and Social Justice in Emerging Markets. Together with Peking University Law School in Beijing, the Clarke Program is orchestrating joint research projects, faculty exchanges, student exchanges, and annual conferences that foster cross-cultural discussion of law and social justice in emerging markets.
