#Legal Insights | Gleiss Lutz on International Arbitration – Episode 4: Public international law

The Gleiss Lutz on International Arbitration podcast explores
current trends in international arbitration. In this fourth
episode, our experts Lukas Schultze-Moderow and Björn P. Ebert
delve into the intersection of international arbitration and
public international law. Human rights and international
environmental standards from public international law have been
enshrined in domestic statutes that, among other things, impose
monitoring and due diligence obligations on corporate actors
(see, for example, the German Supply Chain Act). As such,
environmental social governance (ESG) is no longer just a moral
obligation for corporations, but a legal one. Our experts discuss
these developments and explore other areas of public
international law frequently relevant in arbitral proceedings,
sharing key insights and lessons learned from practice.
