The Union Internationale des Avocats (UIA) will hold its Congress in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, October 27-31, 2017. The Congress will address three main topics:
- natural resource exploitation, as well as all their related problems, in the areas of human rights, environment law, real estate law, trade law, financial law, labour law and criminal law
- repairing the harm caused by terrorism, in order to determine those who are responsible and how victims should be compensated
- the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: an alternative form of dispute resolution in the event of inter-ethnic problems in national and international conflicts?
