Earlier today Anne Orford of the University of Melbourne Law School, JHH Weiler of
the NYU School of Law, and Dino Kritsiotis of the University of Nottingham School of
Law launched the Third Annual Junior Faculty Forum for International Law. The Forum
is designed to assist junior faculty, i.e. those within the first six years of their
academic careers, with their research by staging an annual competition in which six
to nine individuals will be selected and asked to make presentations to the Forum in
a given year: these presentations will then be paired with senior international
legal scholars, who will comment on each of the presentations given to the Forum, so
that the papers are eventually worked up and prepared for publication in the
European Journal of International Law.

The third Forum will be convened at the University of Melbourne on July 7, 8 and 9,
2014. The deadline for submission of applications is December 1, 2013. Further
particulars of the process are now available on http://www.annualjuniorfacultyforumIL.org.
