Set against the evolving landscape of public international law & international relations, this podcast-style forum shall delve beyond headlines. It interrogates the legality of the use of force, the contours of self-defense under the UN Charter, and the rippling effects of great power conflict on smaller states navigating sovereignty, security, and strategic neutrality. As tensions redefine alliances and challenge established norms, the discussion asks not only what the law is, but what it must become in the face of modern conflict and transnational drawbacks.

With distinguished legal minds, seasoned practitioners, and dynamic students engaged in intellectual exchange, the event promises erudite analysis and compelling advocacy, bridging theory and practice through a live demonstration of forum and debate in the legal academe.

Join us as we examine the law where it matters most: at the intersection of power, principle, and global consequence.
