ArbDB Chambers Member, Mark Appel, is to speak on dispute avoidance and conflict management during the Lodestar Dispute Resolution Centre’s Alternative Dispute Resolution Week, between 21 and 25 October 2024.  The event has been planned in cooperation with the American Bar Association’s ADR week and is being sponsored by Mediate.com, among others. 


The seminar will be available online and in-person (see https://na.eventscloud.com/adrweek2024 ). The event will welcome experts in the fields of mediation, arbitration and negotiation to speak about critical ADR challenges and necessary skill sets for ADR professionals.


Mark will be part of a distinguished Panel tackling the topic “A Mediatory Approach to Sustainable Development”. This topic is set against the background of the global legal, business and governmental communities questioning whether current approaches to foreign direct investment-related dispute resolution are “fit for purpose”. 


Mark’s Panel will address that issue and speak to the challenges inherent in cross-cultural mediation, and new, early approaches to the use of mediation and other dispute avoidance processes in complex renewable energy, excavation and power projects.


Mark can be contacted for mediation and arbitration appointments through the Clerk to ArbDB Chambers, Martin Poulter martin.poulter@arbdb.com
