ICC International Centre for ADR
The ICC International Centre for ADR (“Centre”) is the administrative body that oversees the application of the ICC Amicable Dispute Resolution (ADR), Expertise, Dispute Boards and DOCDEX Rules.
The Centre encompasses the ICC International Centre for Expertise and the ICC International Dispute Board Centre but is a separate entity from the ICC Court of Arbitration and its Secretariat, which exclusively manages ICC Arbitration proceedings.
The Centre works with parties to establish a holistic dispute resolution solution that meets the parties’ specific interests. Parties may choose to resolve their dispute by selecting one of the available dispute resolution methods or may customize the procedure by combining various dispute resolution techniques.
In addition, the Centre is the organizer of the annual ICC Mediation Week which takes place every year in February in Paris, France. ICC’s Mediation Week encompasses ICC’s biggest educational event, the ICC International Commercial Mediation Competition as well as the in-house counsel-focused International Mediation Conference.
