This course helped me go from knowing very little about arbitration to broadening my depth of understanding in very complex cases like the Yukos case of arbitration, the Law of the Sea and the different options of procedure that take place in arbitration depending on the situation that the arbitral tribunal are attempting to resolve in regards to how far they are in their process to settling the dispute such as maybe being at the start where they need to ensure the award is valid or ensure recognition of award before enforcement and if there are any obstacles spotted before the dispute can be properly settled and the decision made by the institution like the Hague District Court in the Yukos case is unbiased so awards may need to be annuled which challenges how the procedure was conducted or if perhaps the award has been proved as invalid it may lead to the award being set aside. I strongly recommend the course as it was refreshing from the beginning to the end as learning about the history of arbitration which was at the beginning of the course was one of my favourite sessions as I am interested in history as well as politics, so learning about the history of arbitration and the principles of arbitration fused both these subjects together. This course has also helped me get used to wider reading and independent learning which I will need to get into the habit of when I go to university. Thanks for making it so enjoyable and I hope my review gives a summary of what the course entails for anyone deciding whether to enroll in it.

I recently completed the course "International Law in Action: the Arbitration of International Disputes" with Professors Eric De Brabandere and Dr. Giulia Pinzauti, and I am compelled to express my sincere gratitude for the enriching experience. Professors De Brabandere and Dr. Pinzauti demonstrated an exceptional dedication to the subject matter, delivering lectures with passion and expertise. Their ability to distill complex concepts into practical knowledge created a dynamic and engaging learning environment. The course, which provided a comprehensive overview of international arbitration, blended theoretical insights with real-world case studies, offering a well-rounded understanding of the subject. As an aspiring international lawyer, the practical insights gained from this course are invaluable. The emphasis on the global perspective of international disputes, networking opportunities with professionals in the field, and the enhancement of analytical skills through rigorous case analysis have significantly contributed to my professional development. I am confident that the knowledge and skills acquired in this course will play a pivotal role in shaping my future career in international law. Many thanks to Professors Eric De Brabandere and Dr. Giulia Pinzauti for their dedication and commitment to creating an intellectually stimulating learning environment.

The course helps to understand the mechanism of international arbitration, mainly its institutions, the applicable law, and the famous awards rendered by arbitrators. From the Permanent Court of Arbitration in the Hague, disputes relating to the Law of the Sea, ICSID's disputes, and the enforcement of arbitral awards. The course also provides an analysis of famous awards:1. South China Sea Arbitration (the People's Republic of China vs the Republic of the Philippines).2. Yukos Arbitration (Yukos Universal Limited - Isle of Man vs Russian Federation).3. Artic Sunrise Case (Kingdom of the Netherlands vs Russian Federation).

A complete outlook of the history, mechanisms, institutions, and organizations involved in the peaceful settlement of international disputes concerning diverse matters such as maritime disputes, investment disputes, commercial disputes, etc. A pool of references to leading cases, relevant regulation and proper bibliography makes this course a perfect stage to learn and apply knowledge concerning settlement of international disputes. I have nothing more than thankul words for the organisers and to Leiden Universiteit.

In my opinion, this course make me understand the arbitration history, the importantation of investment arbitration, and basically all the institution of arbitration. As a future lawyer, I am expecting to be a good one and be careful at the moment to establish an arbitral clause. One thing i really loved, was learning more English in relation to law. I really recommend this course to my classmates, because it is easy to understand and very practical! Thank you so much for give me thise opportunity
