Growing Demand, Limited Capacity: International Courts and New Global Challenges
5 Jun
09:00 - 10:30
International courts and tribunals are in increasing demand as the world navigates an era marked by growing geopolitical uncertainty and new challenges. Join us as we consider the roles of the International Court of Justice, ITLOS, and other international courts and tribunals during these turbulent times.
We will discuss the reasons for this growing demand for adjudication in international law, how these judicial bodies have responded, and the effectiveness of advisory opinions, provisional measures, and intervention. We will also look more broadly at the future of these international courts and tribunals, their capacity adequately to respond in the face of the new challenges, and the broader implications for states and non-state actors.
Schedule:
We will commence at 8:30am with a networking breakfast, followed by the seminar at 9am.
