AFRICA ARBITRATION ACADEMY

The Africa Arbitration Academy was established due to the rising demand for improved expertise and training of arbitration practitioners in Africa and to expose African practitioners to the current trends and developments in international commercial and investment treaty arbitration. The inaugural Academy program was held in London (June 2019) and taught by international arbitration experts (academics and practitioners), heads of arbitration institutions, in-house counsel and judges. The overall objective of the Academy is to provide the much-needed specialized training to young arbitration practitioners from Africa and to equip them with the right set of skills to succeed within the international arbitration community. The three-week advanced training is offered using different formats including lectures, mock sessions and practical exercises. There are also mentoring sessions where renowned arbitration experts shared career tips and life experiences with participants. Participants..
