IRZ supported the participation of Ukrainian students in the pre-moots for the Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot. The pre-moots were held in March 2023 in Berlin (Humboldt Moot Association e.V.) and Hamburg (Bucerius Law School).

Four students from the Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv and two from the Ukrainian Catholic University in Lviv took part in the event in Berlin, and two students from the National Ivan Franko University in Lviv took part in the same event in Hamburg.

The feedback from the participants was very positive. In their letters of thanks, the participants emphasised how inspiring it was to take part, and they viewed the event as a defining moment in their future legal careers. This experience clearly demonstrated to them the importance of arbitration.
