The competition this year is a mock moot competition听in international commercial arbitration under ICC Rules of Arbitration for LL.M. students who are, in general, not eligible to participate in most moot competitions and seek听to foster the study of international arbitration for the resolution of international 玉米视频 disputes and investment disputes.
