CIGI's International Law Research Program is a Diamond sponsor of at the 45th Annual Conference of the Canadian Council on International Law (CCIL).
International law experts constantly have to adapt to stay relevant in this fluctuating world. But one may wonder whether we are moving fast enough with technology? Can treaties and governance help in situations of constant changes? What about the differing levels of efficacy and enforceability? Is the current international legal system yielding enough solutions to address new crises? Most importantly, what are those potential solutions and what is the action-plan to move forward? All these issues, and more, will be discussed at the conference.
CIGI's experts will host three panels: How the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) Can Help the World's Indigenous Communities in Crisis; Imagining Climate Litigation in the International Court of Justice; and Looking at Carbon Pricing to Meet the Goals of the Paris Agreement.
