Global Trade Academy 2024 - The Law and Policy of International Trade

The Georgetown University Law Center and the Institute of International Economic Law are delighted to announce that the 2024 Global Trade Academy will take place in-person on April 15-17 at the Georgetown University Law Center and April 18-19 at the law offices of King & Spalding in Washington, DC. For the first time since the pandemic, the Academy will meet live in the heart of the nation’s capital, bringing together participants from governments, IGOs, NGOs, and the private sector, and allowing attendees to meet and exchange views with leading experts as well as participants from around the world.

Every year, the Global Trade Academy tackles tough questions by providing participants with a custom-designed program that explores the legal foundations of the global trading system, the role of regional trade agreements, and the evolution of national policies in the face of rapidly changing global priorities and heightened geopolitical rivalries. Through presentations, interactive policy conversations, breakout/networking sessions, a simulation, and a keynote speech, participants will learn from leading experts about core rules regulating international trade, as well as the most recent developments and disputes shaping the global economy.
