As a leading force for gender equality in alternative dispute resolution (ADR), we drive transformation and champion the advancement of women in the field. Rooted in the vision and determination of pioneering women, our international network empowers female professionals and serves as a beacon for the global ADR community.
We are more than just an association – we are a global community dedicated to supporting, developing, and valuing each member.
Our mission to elevate the presence and impact of women in ADR transcends borders and specialties.
ArbitralWomen is a key resource for professional growth, offering visibility, valuable connections, and opportunities for growth.
While other organisations feature profiles of women in ADR, we pioneered the development of a women-led network. Our platform includes a diverse range of profiles, from renowned practitioners to rising talents.
Regularly visited by potential clients and professionals seeking women in dispute resolution in any capacity, our platform is also a rich resource for professionals seeking publications on key ADR topics.
For more than 30 years, ArbitralWomen has championed and celebrated women in ADR, amplifying their voices and recognising their contributions. This has brought significant exposure, stature, and recognition to our members.
We aim to make membership valuable for all women in the field, regardless of age, experience, jurisdiction, or role.
