Evidence before International Investment Tribunals

The Institute has prepared a research proposal on Evidence before International Investment Tribunals. This research project will seek to identify and clarify the detailed rules and practices of international investment tribunals in relation to collection, production, admissibility, examination, assessment and weighing of different types of evidence under the ICSID and UNCITRAL rules. Such comprehensive review and analysis will be the first of its kind and will be of direct use in practice.

The project is currently at the fundraising stage; the research is expected to start in early 2010 as soon as initial funding has been confirmed.
