Researchers at the Osgoode Hall Law School of York University have launched a new website, International Investment Arbitration + Public Policy. This website, www.iiapp.org, launched last month, aims to showcase research on international investment arbitration in a way that is accessible, independent, and relevant. It was motivated by past questions from governments, businesses, NGOs, and the media related to the rise in so-called investor-state disputes allowed by some trade and investment agreements.
Its purposes are to:
- provide open access to research on investment arbitration;
- identify options for governments in responding to investor lawsuits;
- shed light on the role of investment arbitrators in policy-making; and
- highlight the case for more openness, independence, and public accountability in the system.
