Special Issue: Join Us in Celebrating our 25th Anniversary Jubilee

Welcome to the 24th edition of the ArbitralWomen Newsletter, launching a year-long celebration of our 25th anniversary. This special issue opens with a message from our newly elected President and offers a compelling retrospective on ArbitralWomen’s journey from a small Paris gathering in 1993 to a global force for gender equality in dispute resolution. Key highlights include the development of the Unconscious Bias Toolkit, the second edition of Women Pioneers in Dispute Resolution, and a rich agenda of 2018 anniversary events.
Also in this issue: an in-depth interview with Deborah Tomkinson, Secretary-General of ACICA, insights from our mentorship and moot bursary programmes, reflections on AW’s role at UNCITRAL and GQUAL, and growing discussions on the role of technology and online dispute resolution. Discover how ArbitralWomen continues to expand its impact through strategic partnerships, educational initiatives, and a thriving, inclusive community.
