The Society of International Economic Law (SIEL) will be formally launched vis-a-vis an inaugural conference, scheduled for 15 July-17 July. SIEL’s aim is to bring together scholars and practitioners of international economic law in order to coordinate, collaborate, and debate, thereby creating global networks that will serve to advance teaching and research in the field. For more information regarding SIEL and the agenda of the inaugural conference visit: www.sielnet.org
The International Centre for Trade and Sustainable Development will organize a panel during SIEL’s inaugural conference that will examine developing country participation in the WTO Dispute Settlement System. Through the presentation of country studies on Brazil, Chile and Egypt the panel will share developing country dispute settlement experiences and facilitate active discussions on this issue amongst participants.
ICTSD’s panel emerges from part of a greater project undertaken by the DSU programme. The three panel presentations presented at the conference come from a case study book compiled by the Centre that closely examines the DSU experience of nine developing countries in different regions throughout the world. More details on this field guide and its publishing date will be available in late 2008.
