The project will devise international arbitration rules that can be used by multinational corporations and people who claim their human rights have been harmed by the company, or by companies in their supply chain, to resolve conflicts.
The Hague Institute will coordinate this process. The project drafting committee will be headed by Prof. Bruno Simma, former judge at the International Court of Justice, judge at the US – Iran Claims Tribunal, and arbitrator in numerous stateEtoEstate and investorEstate disputes. Prof. Jan Eijsbouts of Maastricht University, member of the Working Group on International Business and Human Rights Arbitration, will be the project leader.
