ADB Delivers Case-Based Training on Arbitration for Armenian Judges

On 4-5 May 2024, the ADB Office of the General Counsel's Law and Policy Reform Program held the Armenia Arbitration Judicial Colloquium in Tsaghkadzor, Armenia. The colloquium helped build participants' capacity to apply international and Armenian legal approaches to arbitration, using a practical approach in which participants grappled with scenarios based on actual cases. The program focused on issues that judges are likely to encounter in applications to the court to set aside arbitral awards or to enforce arbitral awards. The 21 participants included appellate and trial judges from Armenian courts, as well as representatives from the Arbitration and Mediation Center of Armenia (AMCA), the Ministry of Justice, and the Supreme Judicial Council.
