[Chris Carpenter is a lawyer and researcher in international law. She holds a J.D. from the University of Pennsylvania Law School and a master’s from the University of Cambridge.] This piece is about imposter syndrome, which I encountered in beginning my master’s at the University of Cambridge. When I submitted an abstract for this symposium, countless memories spanning almost a decade in higher education sprung to mind: sexual harassment from faculty, the blatant sexism of an interviewer when applying to law school, the experience of sitting in constitutional law classes...

01 May Beyond Territoriality: Symposium on Jurisdictional “Hooks” for (Extraterritorial) Human Rights Obligations – Human Rights Relationships Across Borders in the Triple Planetary Crisis
...would avoid framing these scenarios as raising extraterritoriality concerns, and instead adopt terminology that draws attention to the relationships at issue, such as ‘transnational’ regulation. After all, transnational or multinational corporate enterprises are not typically described as extraterritorial corporations. As explored by Caroline Omari Lichuma in this symposium, the relational approach extends well to human rights and environmental due diligence legislative initiatives. Moreover, it could inform the reach of corporate due diligence understood as a direct obligation under international law, as advocated in this symposium by Gamze Erdem Türkelli. Questions...
04 Aug Symposium on Ljubljana – The Hague Convention on Mutual Legal Assistance: Critical Reflections – Lessons Learned: Civil Society Engagement in Treaty Negotiations
...phase. This inclusive approach, embodied in the rules of procedure, was crucial for the passage of the treaty. Admittedly, while this may seem self-congratulatory, it is undeniable that the role of CSOs was critical in monitoring the trajectory of the negotiations and also in taking an active part in shaping the discussions and the final outcome (as indicated in another post in this symposium, see here). This ‘watchdog’ role – was used effectively in the context of the negotiations – externally to raise the alarm (see statements at a critical...
