Deadline is May 7, 2021.
► The Annual Junior Faculty Forum for International Law is delighted to announce that the tenth Forum will be hosted by the South African Research Chair on International Constitutional Law in collaboration with the Institute for Comparative and International Law in Africa of the University of Pretoria. It will take place on Monday December 13, Tuesday December 14 and Wednesday December 15, 2021, and has been scheduled to coincide with the University of Pretoria Centre for Human Rights Annual Graduation Celebrations. The tenth Forum will have a strong Africa focus: it will be open to junior faculty affiliated with an institution based on the African continent and to those junior faculty based elsewhere whose research specifically relates to the continent. The venue of the Forum will be the Future Africa Campus of the University of Pretoria.
Designed as an annual feature of the international law calendar, the Forum is aimed at bringing together junior faculty working in the field of international law in order that their work can be presented before an audience of peers and experts and then discussed by more senior scholars in international law and related fields. The initiative is thus dedicated toward encouraging and facilitating the work of young international law scholars by creating an important platform of intellectual opportunity, stimulation and exchange. The inaugural Forum was held at New York University in May 2012; it has been followed by the second Forum at the University of Nottingham (May 2013), the third Forum at the University of Melbourne (July 2014), the fourth Forum at the European University Institute in Florence (June 2015), the fifth Forum at New York University (June 2016), the sixth Forum at the University of Nottingham (May 2017), the seventh Forum at the University of Melbourne (May 2018), the eighth Forum at the National University of Singapore (August 2019), and, most recently, the ninth Forum, hosted in virtual format by the Renmin University of Beijing in China (September and October 2020).
The convenors of the tenth Forum are Christof Heyns (University of Pretoria), Dino Kritsiotis (University of Nottingham), Sarah Nouwen (European University Institute/University of Cambridge), Dire D. Tladi (University of Pretoria) and J.H.H. Weiler (New York University).
As with previous years, selected presentations from the tenth Forum shall be encouraged for publication in the European Journal of International Law (Oxford University Press), a co-sponsor of the event at the University of Pretoria, subject to the outcome of the peer review process.
