Workshops for Jurists
A series of two-day promotional workshop for jurists was conducted in each of the three sub-regions (Maghreb, Mashreq, and Isreal and Turkey) of the MEDA countries in conjunction with the workshops for businessmen. The target audience for these workshops was leaders in the legal community.
The aim of the workshops was to sensitize the members of the legal communities to the advantages of employing arbitration and other alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes in place of litigation. The workshops focused on the role of ADR in international contracts, and were interactive tutorials involving practical case studies/role plays that illustrated the actual functioning of international commercial arbitration and mediation.
