Welcome
Dear IBA ICC Moot Court Competition Participants,
The 2021 edition of the IBA ICC Moot Court Competition has again been very different, this time because we went completely virtual. The Organization would like to take this opportunity thank you all for your continued dedication to the Competition.
Another thing that has changed this year, is our new partnership with our trusted colleagues at the International Bar Association (IBA). Their work, trust and belief in this Competition has helped this year’s edition become another success. Our gratitude also extends to the ICC, the Municipality of The Hague and Stanza Bookshop, for their continued support. Likewise, many thanks to the several organizations, universities and law firms that have all allowed their staff to partake as Evaluators and/or Judges in the Competition. Our express gratitude to those Evaluators and Judges themselves, for volunteering their time and effort in scoring the Memorials and judging the virtual Oral Rounds.
Last, but definitely not least, we would like to thank the Teams! This year we were elated to have welcomed almost 80 Teams, a record number of participants! We are incredibly proud of all the commitment and determination the Teams have shown in participating in this year’s virtual edition of the Competition. Seeing you all cooperate to write your Memorials and prepare your Speakers in these (still) trying times has been a true privilege. We hope that your time as a Team has been an unforgettable one!
We wish you all the best of luck and a bright future!
Sincerely,
The IBA ICC Moot Court Competition Organization
