A Canadian-led gold mining project in Romania threatened to displace 1000 locals in Rosia Montana. Yet, international investment rules are neglecting the locals’ voices, perpetuating injustice to them. How did that happen? Read Stephanie Triefus and Irina Velicu's new paper

Today, we interviewed Rafaella Monesi. She completed her internship in ‘Transnational public interests: constituing public interest beyond and below state’ strand with @stephtriefus.bsky.social and @antoineduval.bsky.social. Read the interview Reserve your spot at 'Unlocking International Law'

It's been amazing working with artist Salome Erni to bring some of the impacts of investment arbitration on local communities to light, and I am excited to see her work exhibited at West, Den Haag from 28/2-13/3!
