Price Moot

The Price Media Law Moot Court Competition or Price Moot in short, is an annual international moot court competition that began in 2008. Described as a competition "for raising the profile of freedom of expression by bringing informed and effective debate and discussion on significant issues of information flows and technology to many parts of the world", the Price Moot, with around a hundred universities worldwide participating every year since 2013, is the largest moot in the world that focuses on international media law and related human rights such as freedom of expression, freedom of religion, freedom of association, and privacy. The sources of law engaged include the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, European Convention on Human Rights, and the International Covenant of Civil and Political Rights.

The moot was created and continues to be organised by the Programme in Comparative Media Law and Policy at the University of Oxford, and is named after the programme's founding director, Monroe E. Price. The international rounds are held at the University of Oxford, while national and regional rounds were introduced in 2010 and have since taken place in Afghanistan, the Americas, Asia-Pacific, China, Africa, East Africa, West Africa, Middle East, South Asia, Northeast Europe, and Southeast Europe. As of the tenth edition of the moot (2017), 130 universities from 52 countries have taken part in the competition.Singapore Management University, which made its debut in 2010, has the best track record in the moot, having reached the finals on four occasions (2010, 2015, 2016, and 2017, winning the 2010, 2016, and 2017 editions), won Best Memorial twice (2010 and 2016), and Best Oralist once (2017).
