In the next academic year, the University of Zurich will again participate in the renowned John H. Jackson Moot Court in WTO Law. Become part of the team!
The John H. Jackson Moot Court Competition on WTO Law simulates a World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute settlement proceeding between two parties. More than 100 teams from around the world participate in this annual competition. First, participating teams submit written submissions from both the complaining party and the responding party. They then argue the case orally before a fictitious WTO panel in a European ELSA partner city. There, the European representatives for the World Finals are selected. At the World Finals at the WTO headquarters in Geneva, the 20 best teams from all over the world compete against each other.
The competition is open to master students with a strong interest in international economic law. The John H. Jackson Moot Court Competition is an excellent opportunity to develop written and oral advocacy skills and to meet students and professionals from around the world. Students who participate in the John H. Jackson Moot Court Competition in WTO Law will receive 18 ECTS credits. The credits can also be counted as a master's thesis.
| An information event will be held on 22 May 2024 at 3pm in the room RAI-F-041. Prior registration is not required. |
