Client Alert: Volterra Fietta and Kings College London to co-host the London International Boundary Conference 2022

We are delighted to announce that the London International Boundary Conference will return for its 5th convention on 12th & 13th December 2022.  Inaugurated in April 2013, it is a major international forum dedicated to furthering multidisciplinary approaches to complex territorial and boundary disputes. The conference strives to bring together specialists from international law, the social sciences, history, as well as technical experts – not usually an assemblage you’ll find at the same venue – to shed light on the debates of the day, emergent challenges and regional hotspots.

The upcoming event will take a hybrid format.
