The Aflred Deakin International Commercial Moot Court
Alfred Deakin International Commercial Arbitration Moot is similar to the Vis Moot, but requires much less
work. It offered a great opportunity to give more students from Africa everything that the experience of
participating in an international moot court brings with it. Our students participated for the first time in
this competition in 2021. The feedback from the organisers was that: “Our arbitrators were very impressed
by the quality of teams who participated in the Moot. We had a total of 43 teams from 33 universities in
12 countries, transforming the fifth Alfred Deakin ICA Moot into Australia’s largest international mooting
competition. Your team placed #10 of the 43 teams who participated in the general rounds, with a total
team score of 651. The highest team score was 716.”
