Course on Heritage Law and Regulations
HLR 2007

Macao is a unique place under a Heritage point of view. As well, Macao has a great expertise on dealing with the Conservation of Heritage that makes the Territory a work field for Institutions from other territories. In Macau several sites have been classified as World Heritage by UNESCO and a Rehabilitation Programme is going on, considering sites and buffer zones. It would be interesting and useful to increase the knowledge and expertise in this field either through lectures by UNESCO or analyzing a rehabilitation case study of a successful project.

General Course on
Foreign Direct Investment
FDI 2005

This zone of the world is characterised by intensive flows of capital. Macao, with the liberalisation of the gambling industry, is attracting a huge amount of FDI. FDI has impacts both in the home country and the host country. In this sense, the International Legal framework, under the WTO, is important to take under analysis. Simultaneously, countries have their own laws and regulations. The enforcement of the laws is rather important in as far as disputes may occur either in relation to the international or national frameworks.
This course is organised in cooperation with the International Law Office (GADI)
