Join us for this conference to discuss the main contributions of the ICC International Court of Arbitration to international arbitration over the past century and the challenges that the practice is facing. This event is organised on occasion of the ICC Bolivian ICC Arbitration Day. 

The ICC Court of International Arbitration celebrates its 100 years of existence and successful contribution to dispute resolution and prevention. As such, in the first panel of this event, the speakers will analyse the main milestones accomplished by the ICC Court in this centenary and its contributions to the practice of international arbitration. In the second panel, the speakers will talk about the challenges that ICC Arbitration and international arbitration might be facing in the future.

Open to those aged 40 and under, YAAF provides opportunities for individuals to gain knowledge, develop their skills and understand ICC’s arbitral procedure and other dispute resolution services.
