CIMA Contributes to World Atlas of Arbitration - Czech Republic

The Center for International Mediators and Arbitrators (CIMA) has contributed to the World Atlas of Arbitration, a global initiative examining developments in international arbitration across jurisdictions.

According to CIMA"s Head of Global Arbitration Research Michael Harrington, “Institutions from emerging arbitration jurisdictions are no longer observers — they are becoming active contributors to the future direction of global dispute resolution.”

CIMA’s participation reflects its growing role in arbitration training, institutional development, and international ADR collaboration and dialogue.

Global Spotlight on Distinguished Indian Lawyer and Arbitrator Dr. Misha Kumar, FCIArb – Drafting Arbitration Agreements with Precision

The Center for International Mediators and Arbitrators (CIMA) proudly recognises Dr Misha Kumar for her outstanding lecture on Arbitration Agreements.

She emphasised that arbitration clauses are the jurisdictional backbone of any dispute process, requiring precision rather than boilerplate drafting.

Key Takeaways:

■ Clear distinction between seat, governing law, and rules
■ Avoidance of pathological clauses
■ Importance of separability and enforceability
■ Drafting with the New York Convention in view

CIMA commends Dr Kumar for her intellectual rigour and practical insight, which greatly enriched the Academy and strengthened its global arbitration discourse.
