17 October 2024: Dr Nilufer Oral was invited to Participate at the London Conference on International Law on 17 October 2024 

The London Conference on International Law is a biennial event dedicated to exploring the latest developments in international law and providing participants with the highest-level insights from leading experts in the field. The conference explored the effectiveness and limitations of existing legal principles and the ability of international law to address contemporary and future challenges. It examined the defining content of public international law as we understand it today, questioning whether recent international events have exposed fault lines or whether it remains adequate to address the issues at hand. The conference challenged the preconceptions and assessed whether the reach of international law extends further than commonly believed.

Nilufer was one of the panelist at the first Plenary Session – In Conversation with Members of the International Law Commission, chaired by Sir Michael Wood KC of Twenty Essex. The panelists include:

Professor Dapo Akande, Chichele Professor of Public International Law, University of Oxford
Professor Martins Paparinskis, Professor of Public International Law, University College London
Ambassador Mario Oyarzábal, Ambassador of the Argentine Republic to the Kingdom of the Netherlands
Dr Nilüfer Oral, Director of the Centre for International Law, National University of Singapore
Patricia Galvão Teles, Member, United Nations International Law Commission
