STL Hosts STL/Kyoto University Joint Student Seminar in International Law


STL recently welcomed students from Kyoto University to participate in a Joint Student Seminar in International Law on May 20 and 21. Over the course of the two-day seminar, six STL students and six Kyoto University students presented papers and addressed a range of emerging international law issues, spanning human rights, investment, trade, arbitration, criminal justice and anti-corruption law. In-depth discussions followed each student presentation, which encouraged critical thinking and idea sharing among the participants. Professor Mark Feldman spearheaded the STL group; Professor Shotaro Hamamoto led the Kyoto University group. STL and Kyoto University are looking forward to more academic exchanges in the future.
