President Joe Biden has invited leaders from Western Hemisphere countries to Washington on November 3rd. This Summit provides a great opportunity to launch an Americas-wide ISDS exit. The Summit’s goals – creating a green economy transition and resilient public health systems and furthering the rule of law – demand elimination of ISDS.
Rethink Trade's paper, "Turning the Tide: How to Harness the Americas Partnership for Economic Prosperity to Deliver an ISDS-Free Americas,” provides the roadmap. You don’t want to miss this conversation. Rethink joined forces with the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment (CCSI) and Georgetown Law’s Center for the Advancement of the Rule of Law in the Americas (CAROLA) and the Center on Inclusive Trade and Development (CITD) to investigate the legal pathways for using Pres. Biden's Americas Partnership for Economic Prosperity (APEP) process to dismantle ISDS within the region
