Let’s Discuss is a series of virtual events brought to you by Ciarb. The series is free for Ciarb members.

 

Throughout the year we will be running a series of virtual events, hosted by members for members. These will get under the skin of the things that really matter in alternative dispute resolution (ADR) around the world and talk about the issues that matter to you. They will be a great opportunity to learn, discuss and meet new connections.

 

It’s up to you, our members to decide, what topics should be discusses. Join us for the Let’s Discuss sessions and influence the conversation with your ideas, learn from fellow ADR professionals and shape the future discussion around topics that matter to you. You can also email us with topic proposals at events@ciarb.org.

 

We will confirm events as we go through the year to ensure they are always based on the most relevant issues of the moment.

 

Let's Discuss events are not recorded and therefore not available on demand, so make sure you join us live for discussion, peer-to-peer learning and networking.
