Jaw unpacks issues and challenges
in the fast-changing world
JAW unpacks the issues and challenges in the fast-changing world of international commercial arbitration. JAW also pays particular attention to the key initiatives which are shaping and transforming dispute resolution in Africa. These include:
Activating the AFSA Alliance which brings together the Law Societies of the 16 States of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) in order to harmonise and standardise arbitration practice under the AFSA International banner – an initiative described as a potential game changer for arbitration in Southern Africa.
Linking the leading arbitration centres of Africa so as to generate a shared jurisprudence and code of practice.
Adopting the distinctive CAJAC model for resolving trade and commercial disputes along the African Belt and Road and in the formation of a BRICS arbitral mechanism.
