Digital Justice for Consumers: Technology and the Internet of Disputes

This workshop will examine how the increasing ease and speed that we are able to purchase goods and services online exposes consumers to the increasing risk of new types of disputes.

The international panel of speakers will consider how traditional legal institutions are inadequate for this new digital world of cross-border commerce and assess the extent of this ‘Digital Justice Gap’, with the aim of proposing solutions for a new global digital justice framework.
