ArbitralWomen members are encouraged to share their views on corruption and the challenges it poses for the arbitration process by participating in Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner LLP’s (BCLP) International Arbitration Survey 2024.

ArbitralWomen Connect matches ArbitralWomen members with each other one-on-one or in small groups for a virtual conversation. The aim of this initiative is to support our members in expanding their network in the international arbitration community.

ArbitralWomen members Dr Yulia Levashova (Associate Professor, Nyenrode Business University) and Dr Pascale Accaoui Lorfing (Researcher CREDIMI, Professor affiliated to Law ESCP Business School, Paris) were honoured to organise a conference on ISDS Reform:

Between 25 and 27 October 2023, the Consolat de Mar hosted the ‘Barcelona International ADR Week Business Forum’. ArbitralWomen member Ana Stanič (E&A Law Director)  moderated the opening panel during which the two gurus of mediation, Professor Dwight Golann, Research Professor at the University of California Law – San Francisco and Suffolk University (Boston) and Dr Gary Friedman, Director, Mediation Law Offices and Founder of Understanding in Conflict (California) demonstrated the advantages of mediation over arbitration.

ArbitralWomen has announced the new Steering Committee (SC) for its young practitioners’ arm, Young ArbitralWomen Practitioners (YAWP). The members of the new SC come from diverse professional and geographical backgrounds and include Manini Brar (Independent arbitrator in New Delhi), Marie Devereux (Senior Associate at Vinson & Elkins in London), Magda Kofluk (Managing Associate at Stephenson Harwood in Dubai), Anamaria Marin (Senior Associate at SLCG – Studio Legale Associato in Milan), Jae Hee Suh (Counsel at Allen & Overy in Singapore), and Alison Torline (Counsel at Busse Disputes in Frankfurt).

Recent research shows that being listed in ArbitralWomen’s membership directory increases your chances of being considered as an arbitrator.
