After 27 years at @IHEID_Law, Professor Marcelo Kohen delivered his last class in his farewell course ‘International Law Through Cases’. Students, alumni, current and former supervisees, and colleagues joined him for this very special occasion.

The UNSG has published the list of the candidates nominated by the PCA national groups for the ICJ special election of 4 Nov 2022. 17 national groups have nominated Professor Kohen. This confirms the international community's trust that he would make an excellent ICJ judge 🇺🇳⚖️
