OPEN INVITATION
CISDL International Legal Symposium, May 28-29

Treaty Regimes in Practice: Domestic Implementation of International Law on Sustainable Development

The CISDL, together with the McGill University’s Faculty of Law, Hydro Quebec and Oppenheimer Research Chairs and the International Law Association, invites international environment, development, human rights and law experts, academics, professionals and students to attend its upcoming International Legal Symposium

Learned dialogue will focus on recent trends and best practices in domestic laws to implement the sustainable development objectives of international treaty regimes, and how these experiences are – in turn – shaping new rules and institutions in the treaty regimes themselves. Invited keynote speakers and chairs include Mme Bianca Jagger, Chair of the World Future Council, HE Judge CG Weeramantry, former Vice-President of the International Court of Justice, Hon. Judge CD Gonthier, former Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada, Dr Kamal Hossain, former Chair, International Law Association Committee on International Law and Sustainable Development, and Prof David Freestone, former Deputy General Counsel, The World Bank.
