DESCRIPTION:Conférence donnée par la Prof. Dr. Christina Binder\, E.MA\, Se
 ction for International Law and International Relations\, University of Vi
 enna\, organisée par la Chaire Fortier en arbitrage international et droit
  du commerce international.\nRésumé\n(En anglais seulement)\nThe concerns 
 of indigenous peoples gain increasing importance in international investme
 nt proceedings. One of the reasons is their recent recognition as cultural
 ly distinct peoples\, which goes along with a stronger protection of their
  land rights in international law. At the same time\, the always denser ne
 t of bilateral investment treaties (BITs) – more than 2\,900 by the end of
  2013 –  plays a role. These developments increase the likelihood of inter
 actions between indigenous peoples’ rights and international investment la
 w and make the need for coordination between both systems more acute\; eve
 n if\, so far\, indigenous rights have been dealt with only in very few in
 vestment cases.\nAgainst that background\, the presentation examines possi
 ble means to deal with interactions between international investment law a
 nd the rights of indigenous peoples in investment proceedings. It explores
  existing mechanisms such as treaty interpretation (Article 31(3.c) VCLT) 
 or the amicus curiae participation of indigenous peoples. Likewise improve
 d solutions/de lege ferenda options such as reference to human/indigenous 
 rights in investment treaties or mandatory ex ante human rights/cultural i
 mpact assessments are discussed. Overall\, the presentation argues that mo
 re needs to be done to mediate between the regimes of international invest
 ment law and the rights of indigenous peoples.\n
