Status and Perspective of the Belt and Road Initiative in International Arbitration
Welcome to this panel on the status and perspectives of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in international arbitration. This discussion brings together scholars and practitioners to explore how the BRI is reshaping global trade, investment, and dispute resolution. Speakers highlight challenges from large-scale projects—like multiparty disputes, technical complexities, and political risks—and the need to harmonize arbitration frameworks across jurisdictions. The debate underscores adapting arbitration to cultural differences and the growing role of mediation, while noting how digital tools and geopolitical tensions shape BRI disputes. Join us as we examine how innovation and cooperation can strengthen arbitration and support fair, sustainable development.
