Today more than ever, contemporary challenges lead us to reflect on the role of public interest litigation in proceedings before international courts. The political and legal landscape that surrounds international tribunals has evolved drastically since their creation. One aspect of this evolution is the growing interest in using international courts in the public interest. In the context of the workshop “The Potential of Public Interest Litigation in International Law” organised by the University of Exeter and the University of Geneva, Professor Makane Moïse Mbengue will deliver a keynote speech at the opening day of the event, entitled “Public interest litigation before international courts and tribunals: Past, present, and future”. We are pleased to invite you to join us for his keynote speech on Zoom (link) on Thursday 11 November 2021 at 4:30pm GMT (5:30pm CEST).
