An arbitration moot, or international arbitration moot competition, is a global academic program that replicates complex arbitral proceedings. In this setting, law students from different countries assume the role of counsel for the parties in international arbitral disputes and participate in oral hearings before arbitral tribunals composed of experts from diverse backgrounds. These competitions foster the development of skills in legal advocacy, analysis, and the practice of international arbitration.
The MOOT MIAMI – International Competition in Arbitration, International Investment Law, and International Trade is a global institutional academic activity organized by the Miami International Arbitration Center (MIAC) of the Latin Chamber of Commerce of the United States (CAMACOL), bringing together university teams from different parts of the world.

It constitutes a platform of excellence that fosters the development of future generations of highly specialized professionals in international arbitration and alternative dispute resolution, with a strong global outlook.
