Session information

Panel two: Wishful thinking or true possibilities: enforcement of awards against sovereign and environmental concerns

Description

Organised as an Oxford debate, our panellists will address two current problems in international arbitration. Some panellists will be invited to defend a motion, while the others will attempt to debunk it. The first motion will confirm or deny whether enforcing awards against sovereigns has become a highway to hell. The second motion will discuss if the arbitral community is doing enough (or not) to support greener arbitrations.
