On 23–24 November 2023, CIL Senior Research Fellow Charalampos Giannakopoulos attended the inaugural conference of the Sustainability in Arbitration and Investment Law (SAIL) research initiative at the Erasmus University Rotterdam School of Law.

Under the question “Is the World Without Investment Arbitration, a World With(out) Justice?”, the conference sought to map out different paradigms of international investment regulation in a post-reformed ISDS, and also a post-ISDS, world. Dr Giannakopoulos participated in the discussion with a presentation entitled “Justice in ISDS and the Search for Community”, which addressed the question of ISDS’ “audience” in the system’s current and potentially reformed state.
