The 15th BIICL WTO conference will be held in London on May 6 and 7. Details are here, and a draft program is here. I'll be chairing a roundtable on regulatory trade issues, but if that doesn't excite you, there are also lots of other panels:
- Measures Pursuing Multiple Policy Objectives: The Scope of Application and Overlapping Disciplines in GATT-TBT-SPS after Seals
- WTO Accession Protocols and Other Non-Treaty WTO Instruments or Texts: Legal Status and Interpretation in WTO Dispute Settlement
- Restoring the Negotiating Function of the WTO: Are there Alternatives to the Single-Speed, Single Undertaking Approach?
- The Revival of Export Controls and Trade Sanctions: The Russia-Ukraine Conflict and Beyond
- The “Plain Packaging” Public Health Strategy: Tobacco Products, Alcohol, Sugary Products: What Role (If Any) For the WTO?
- Developments in WTO Dispute Settlement Procedure & Jurisprudence
There will also be a keynote address by David Unterhalter, former Chairperson of the WTO Appellate Body.
Hope to see some of you there!
