#PAW2024 Official Events Checklist
#PAW2024 / 18 – 22 March 2024

1- Only #PAW2024 Partners’ Events will be included in the PAW Calendar. If you wish to become a Partner, please register directly on the PAW website (from mid-November) or contact us @contact@parisarbitrationweek.com.
2- The PAW Calendar will soon be available on the PAW website. Please note that the PAW website allows Partners to create, manage and promote their Event(s) and that it is currently being updated with new features and is expected to be available by mid-November 2023 (stay tuned!).
3- Partners may organise (or co-organise) up to two Events, whether virtual, in person or hybrid. We encourage Partners to co-organise Events with other Partners. If both co-organiser would like to appear on the PAW Calendar, they must each become a PAW Partner.
4- The following information will appear on the PAW Calendar:

Duration of Events
6- As a general rule, Events should not exceed a maximum of 2 hours each.
7- Events may overlap but note that participants will not be able to register for more than one academic Event held at the same time.
Content, Format and Representation
8- Partners are free to choose the content and format of their Event(s), but academic Events should relate to arbitration or dispute resolution in general.
