SUMMARY:Trade\, Investment Law and Public Health: The Philip Morris Saga
DESCRIPTION:UNIGE–IISD Lunch Series on Investment Disputes\nCompanies are increasingly relying on international trade and investment agreements as a tool to challenge domestic regulatory measures. The proceedings backed by Philip Morris and its affiliates are a telling story in this respect. The battlefield challenging states’ regulations on tobacco products has expanded from domestic courts to international arbitral tribunals to the WTO Dispute Settlement Body (DSB). What do these cases mean for public health measures and the fight against tobacco consumption? What can be learnt from these cases for the future drafting of trade and investment agreements? Join Benn McGrady and discussants to debate and discuss the Philip Morris cases before investor–state arbitral tribunals and the DSB.
