The recent Asia Pacific Centre for Arbitration & Mediation (APCAM) International Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Summit held in New Delhi saw the Asian International Arbitration Centre (AIAC) and Asian Institute of Alternative Dispute Resolution (AIADR) joining APCAM as members. This collaboration between the two esteemed organizations in the Asia Pacific region is expected to have a significant impact on the future of alternative dispute resolution in the area.
