Présentation

#UIAWFMC

Forum presented by the UIA with the support of the Frankfurt am Main Chamber of Commerce and Industry

The UIA World Forum of Mediation Centres was created in 2001. Every nine months it brings together some of the best commercial mediation practitioners and officers of commercial mediation centres from around the world, together with lawyers, business managers, academics, trainers, and others interested in learning and sharing insights about the development and use of the mediation process. Usually there are participants from 15 to 20 or more countries in attendance, often from four or five continents, each bringing a different perspective on the use and development of mediation in their jurisdiction.

Whether you are from a place in which mediation already is readily accepted and integrated into the system of dispute resolution, or from one in which the “Dispute Resolution Revolution” is still in a yet-to-be-fully-accepted stage, there is something of value for you at the Forum. Each one is designed to enhance your knowledge about the mediation process, and to help you identify best practices as a mediator, both of which are accomplished through the various topics in the sessions, led by deeply-experienced mediators.

Equally, if not more, importantly, it also will provide you with ample opportunities to develop relationships and exchange insights on the development and use of mediation with colleagues from a multitude of different cultures around the world. That opportunity can have a profoundly beneficial impact on your professional expertise. To do so at one location is unique to an international event; and convening every nine months is unique to the Forum.

We are excited to have you join us for the 31st Forum in Frankfurt, Germany. It will be an unforgettable international event, and colleagues from around the world have already confirmed their participation. Since attendance at the sessions and lunch/dinner meals will be limited to the spaces available, be sure to register early so that you won’t miss out.

We look forward to seeing you in Frankfurt!

For more information please do not hesitate to contact us.

The creation and organization of the UIA MEDIATION FORUM Prize by the President of the UIA World Forum of Mediation Centres is directly related to the purpose of the UIA World Forum of Mediation Centres. That purpose is to raise awareness of the utility of mediation in any field, not only amongst current users but also amongst the younger generation and students, offering them the chance to meet with professionals working in mediation, providing the opportunity to enhance practice, and gathering different generations in the UIA MEDIATION FORUM. 

The UIA MEDIATION FORUM Prize is awarded to a student under 30 years of age in recognition of the best report presented at and related to the UIA World Forum of Mediation Centres attended, on the basis of the quality of the report's content.

The reports must be submitted by July 31, 2023 at the latest.

The report must:
• Respect the format described in article 5-3 of the Rules*.
• Be accompanied by a picture of the participant, confirmation of name/surname, current full postal address and email, date and place (town and country) of birth, justification of being a student.
• Be accompanied with a separate letter inserting only two short handwritten sentences summarizing, in one of the working languages of the UIA (French, English or Spanish), the reason(s) why the participant has decided to attend the UIA MEDIATION FORUM and to participate in the UIA contest organized by the Rules.  This separate letter, dated and signed by the author, will be scanned and sent with the report by email, as indicated in article 5-4 of the Rules, below.
• Indicate which is the native language of the author.

*These Rules lay down the terms and conditions for participating in the UIA World Forum of Mediation Centre contest and, if selected, being awarded the “UIA MEDIATION FORUM Prize”.
