Learning outcomes
The seminar is intended for students interested in international arbitration and international commercial litigation. In particular, the seminar will address some procedural aspects of international arbitration and the main aspects of the Vienna Convention on the International Sale of Goods, i.e., the topics covered by the Willem C Vis Moot. The objective of the seminar is to provide students with an initial theoretical-practical approach on the issues covered and also to select the members of the Unibo team for the Vis Moot. Being held in the II Semester, in fact, upon its completion it will be possible to form the group that, after the summer, will begin work on the competition problem. By the end of the workshop, the student has acquired basic skills to resolve legal issues in the field of international commercial arbitration.
