OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Investor-State Dispute Settlement: Are Arbitrators or Judges the Path Forward?
Join us for a seminar about the investor-state dispute settlement system (ISDS), the instrument investors can use to sue countries for alleged discriminatory practices. ISDS is currently at a crossroads – major reforms like permanent investment courts with appellate proceedings – once fanciful – now appear respectable. Proponents see these changes as enhancing the rule of law, predictability, and consistency across cases.
