September 4, 2007
The Center for International Environmental Law (CIEL) is participating
in the UNCITRAL Working Group on Arbitration convening in Vienna on September

the rapid developments in the area of investment arbitration and to adapt
the currently inadequate UNCITRAL Rules to address investment arbitrations.
