Africa in the Moot
Unlocking the potential of international commercial arbitration in Africa
Promoting education and innovation
Africa in the Moot is a growing group of individuals and institutions using their skillsets and resources to support students from African universities in the field of arbitration and to support African universities who want to enhance teaching in the field of international commercial law and arbitration. Our intention is to support future practitioners from the African continent as part of the global international arbitration community and to increase arbitration awareness, experience, and expertise in the region.
Who we are
We are a group of Willem C. Vis Moot alumni from all around the world aiming to unlock the potential of international commercial arbitration in Africa. We are collaborating together with a burning passion of opening a world of opportunity to African universities.
