Hong Kong Legal Week 2022 will be launched on November 7 bringing together prominent experts, practitioners, government officials, academics and elites from diverse sectors from around the world to share their insights.

The issues to be discussed at the Department of Justice’s annual flagship event this year include facilitating access to justice through international instruments and diversified dispute resolution mechanisms, promoting the rule of law for sustainability, and the latest LawTech developments relevant to the Belt & Road Initiative and in the international arena.

The five-day programme will feature a series of international and important events in hybrid mode, including the Asia-Pacific Private International Law Summit, the Law Society of Hong Kong’s Fifth Belt & Road Conference and more.

Known as the “three sisters” of private international law, the International Institute for the Unification of Private Law, the Hague Conference on Private International Law and the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law will participate in many of the events throughout the week.

Live broadcast will be available. Members of the public are also welcome to register for joining the event online.
