Introduction EMC²

 

The ELSA Moot Court Competition (EMC˛) is a simulated hearing in the World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute settlement system. Competitor teams represent both the Complainant and Respondent parties to the Case by presenting oral submissions in front of a Panel. EMC˛ Panels consist of WTO law experts and are referred to as Panellist. The Competition provides students with the opportunity to put  theory into practice, thereby complimenting their formal legal education.

 

The World Trade Organization (WTO), which was established in 1995, is based on the old GATT Agreement and creates a system for efficiently regulating international trade. Despite the controversies, the present structure looks to promote and enhance international trade for years to come.

 

The aim of the Competition is both to encourage further development on the subject matter in the curriculum of academic institutions and also to contribute to the ongoing discussion about globalisation in the context of the WTO Agreements.
