Professor Liu Ying from Jinan University Attends UN Commission on International Trade Law Conference as Member of Chinese Government Delegation


Publisher: Law School/Intellectual Property School

Date: April 11, 2025


From March 24 to 28, 2025, the 68th session of Working Group IV (Electronic Commerce) of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCTAD) convened at the United Nations headquarters in New York City. Professor Liu Ying, representing Jinan University’s Law School/Intellectual Property School, participated as part of the Chinese government delegation tasked with discussing and reviewing the Default Rules for Data Supply Contracts (Third Revision Draft).

In the context of the rapidly evolving digital economy, where data has emerged as a crucial production factor, the regulation of data transactions through contractual frameworks has become a priority on the international agenda. The UNCTAD's initiative seeks to establish standardized private law rules governing data transactions, which is vital for encouraging the healthy growth of the global digital economy and fostering an inclusive approach to data governance.

During the session, representatives from multiple countries engaged in comprehensive discussions on various core issues surrounding data trading rules. Key topics included clarifying the legal nature of data supply contracts, differentiating between active and passive data provision, defining derivative data, and establishing third-party protection mechanisms. These discussions showcased the complexities and challenges associated with creating cohesive international regulations.

Established in 1966 by the United Nations General Assembly, the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law serves as the main legislative body for international trade law. Its influential instruments, including the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Model Law on Electronic Commerce, have significantly contributed to the harmonization of private international trade laws, particularly in the realm of e-commerce.

As the digital economy increasingly drives global growth, China's participation through its expert delegation reflects a proactive stance on global digital governance. By engaging in the formulation of international rules, China aims to cultivate a fair, reasonable, open, and inclusive framework for data governance, which is crucial for ensuring stability and sustainability in the global digital landscape. Professor Liu Ying's involvement in this crucial discussion not only highlights Jinan University's strength in cultivating expertise in foreign-related legal matters but also exemplifies the university's alignment with national strategies.

Jinan University remains committed to enhancing its contributions to foreign-related legal talent development and academic research, thereby providing robust intellectual support for China’s active participation in the formation of international regulations.
